About the event

The Dance of the Lioness - Full Moon Ecstatic Qigong
Syra Khan leads an Aquarius Full Moon Ecstatic Qigong Movement Women's Circle and Tea Ceremony on The Lion's Gate Portal 8/8. https://banyen.com/events/3168120250808

As Above, So Within

This Aquarius Full Moon and Lion’s Gate 8/8 portal, you are invited into a living temple of movement and feminine embodiment. This ceremonial gathering welcomes women who resonate with the memory of stars - Sirius, Lyra, Vega, Lemuria, Pleiades, Orion, Atlantis as well as Egypt. These soul blueprints resting in our DNA once activated, allow us to co-weave their essence into our daily lives and into Mother Earth.

Why 8/8? The Lion’s Gate Portal

The Lion’s Gate peaks each year on August 8th (8/8), when Sirius, the spiritual sun rises in alignment with our Sun in Leo (heart-centered power) creating a powerful influx of transmission for DNA Activation, karmic healing and higher consciousness. The ancient Egyptians revered this alignment and aligned their temples to Sirius honoring this time as a symbol of cosmic order, rebirth and solar truth.

This year’s Lion’s Gate is especially powerful for Orion souls, offering deep karmic clearing around power, exile wounds and soul fragmentation. Supporting the transition from separation to unity, exile to embodiment and from old soul contracts of fear, shame, and guilt into new timeline of wholeness.

Full Moon in Aquarius + Ecstatic Qigong

In Qigong philosophy, Moon symbolizes the feminine principle of soft, intuitive and deeply connected to the cycles of nature. Every month Full Moon is an opportunity to practice Qigong and nurture our own internal Yin Qi. Full Moon Qi brings balance, harmony and clarity with the ability to renew our selves. In Qigong philosophy, when the mirror of mind becomes as bright as the full moon; one can see the whole universe in a grain of sand. Through Ecstatic Qigong movement, we will activate our flow state with activated energy centers and attune to Moon’s radiance and the Lioness energy.

Through Yellow Lotus and Osmanthus Flower (Sun and Moon) tea ceremony, we will integrate the movement into stillness and presence. Yellow Lotus is a symbol of sun, joy and mental clarity. We will be sipping Organic Yellow Lotus Tea (sourced responsibly from a small farm in Asia) infused with golden Osmanthus flowers (known as Gui Hua in Chinese medicine) is linked to Moon Goddess Chang’e. In Taoist lore, golden Osmanthus flower is a symbol of souls fragrance, cultivated through patience and devotion over lifetimes.
