The 8:8 gate with the Sun moving through Leo marks the astrological season of: power, self honouring and the courage to bring our attention back to our heart and creative power. And the number 8 that is associated with abundance and transformation.
Now, 8:8 means the energetic weather station shows a very promising climate to experience the fruits of your 2026 evolutionary work so far — and to expand further.
But the gate does not do the work for you.
You have to meet it consciously.
So instead of giving you another 8:8 wishlist, I want to give you something I actually use in my work.
A practice from Step 3 of the House of Mastery Alchemy Process:
The Biographical Timeline
A guided practice to step back and look at the landscape of your life as a whole.
You will begin to see the patterns that are difficult to recognise while you are living inside them.
And then we turn towards the future.
Not by pretending the past never happened.
Not by writing another wishlist for the person you hope to become.
But by consciously deciding what comes with you — and what does not.
Reflection → Atonement → Attunement.
I have created The Biographical Timeline as a complete House of Mastery Studio Practice, including my personal introduction and the beautifully designed workbook to guide you through the process.
€16 • One-time access to the experience • video & workbook download
This is your 8:8 gateway
Not to another fantasy
To the next conscious chapter of your life
Let me take you there via the following link:

Warm regards,

Relationships are the hospital to the soul
Relationship Alchemy in my practice - Losing & healing connection in Love
On connection pain, old scripts and finding our way back to ourselves and each other
An intimate relationship can be one of the safest places in our lives.
And at the same time, one of the places where we can be hurt most deeply.
Not feeling seen.
Not feeling heard.
Feeling your partner withdraw at precisely the moment you reach for connection.
Being criticised when you feel you are already trying so hard.
Having the same conversation again and again, ending in the same frustration and eventually the same distance.
It is easy to believe that the problem lies in what the other person is doing.
But often, something more complex is happening.
What happens between two people today can touch something much older than the relationship itself.
What really happens when connection hurts?
Several years ago, I wrote about the way intimate relationships can bring old pain to the surface.
I described how an event in the present can activate a much older emotional experience. A partner not responding, for example, may evoke much more than irritation about that particular moment. It can touch a deeper feeling of not being seen, not being important or never being quite enough.
I still believe that insight matters.
But over the years, I have come to see another crucial step in this process.
We do not simply react from our pain.
We react from the meaning we have learned to attach to that pain.
This is where what I call Script Activation within Relationship Alchemy begins.
Imagine your partner withdrawing during a conflict.
The event is:
You are no longer connecting with me.
Underneath it, connection pain may emerge:
I cannot reach you.
But almost immediately, an older conclusion can become active:
See? In the end, I am on my own.
Or:
My feelings don’t matter.
Or:
I am clearly not important enough.
That meaning begins to shape our behaviour.
Not because we consciously decide to make connection more difficult, but because we are trying to protect it.

The first word you see is the word the Universe is guiding you towards.
Send me your word and I will send you your next step in concious evolution.
There are 4 levels of conciousness:
To me - when you feel life happens to you. You feel no control, but overwhelm.
By me - when you feel life happens because of your action. You take control, but feel exhausted.
Through me - when you know life happens because of you. You believe In something higher and greater than you: a friendly universe.
As me - when you know life creates, duplicates and reciprocates through Unconditional Love.
🙏💗💫

The Equinox gateway to Autumn - the season of integration
September 22 marks one of the year’s two rare points of balance: the moment when daylight and darkness meet in equal measure.
The Equinox marks a transition within the cycle of life force that moves through the four seasons and drives all evolution: inspiration in Spring, beginning at the Spring Equinox; growth in Summer; harvesting and integration in Autumn; and finally death, rest and sleep in Winter.
Nothing in nature grows continuously. Every creation begins with an impulse, develops into form, ripens through experience and eventually releases that form, allowing its energy to return to the source from which new life can emerge. What appears to be an ending is therefore not an absence of life, but an essential part of its renewal.
Our universal and therefor human system are fully equiped to lead healthy, harmonious and creative lives, within the relation we have and the interaction that takes places between our own system, those of others and most of all the relation we have with the earth, nature and the cycles of day, night, seasons regulated by the light of the Sun.
Our mind and bodies organise a certain balance within these systems to regulate a certain harmony based on the feedback we get from the outside world. For example to regulate blood sugars, or to regulate emotions to express feelings in our relationships. We organise proximity towards others and search for ways and means to relate, live and express.
People have an inate positive drive toward and inner wisdom about their own health. We not only try to maintain steady states and react to feedback, we also strive towards creativity and intimacy.
We come fully equiped to lead harmonious internal and external lives.
Yet people have chronic problems because their inner resources and wisdom are not being fully accesed. Negative aspects and drives that are embedded within us often constrain our acces to our resources.
