5 Ways To Find Faith in Your Daily Life
It is light in the darkest night. It brings people to their knees. It is symbolic and powerful, yet proof less and criticized. It illuminates life and it wages war. It escapes some and captivates many. It is faith; to some it is doctrine, to others it is fiction.
Today’s definition of faith doesn’t have to relate to religion; it can be trust or belief in something without proof. But in today’s society the invisible creates disbelief. People lack faith in all areas of their lives because they are looking for evidence. They are waiting for the ideal job, the perfect relationship and financial abundance. They are looking for something tangible—and as a result, they are still waiting. When the answer doesn’t fall into their laps they become cynical and they lose faith.
I was riding in the elevator one morning and a gentleman was repeatedly pressing the button for the 5th floor, but it wasn’t lighting up. I kindly told him that I too had pressed the same button and that the light didn’t work. He laughed and said, “Are you sure we will still arrive?”
I said, “I have faith that the elevator will stop on the 5th floor, yes.”
He looked at me long and hard and responded, “Really? I’m not sure I have that much faith. If it doesn’t seem to work it must be broken.” I said, “If we arrive on 5 will you be a believer then?” He said, “No, it takes more evidence than that.”
What a powerful, symbolic statement. He lacked faith that he would arrive at his destination and for him this destination probably related to life itself. How many of you are so jaded by past experiences that you too have lost all faith and wonder if you are even on the right path?
I can relate to losing inspiration and faith. I spent three years working on a business venture that sucked the life out of my very existence, but I believed that I had to endure hardship to find happiness. I had lost hope that I would ever find passion or joy again. But my inner guidance knew better. I finally had to ask myself: Why is it okay to sacrifice even one day of my life in exchange for potential happiness, when I could be happy right now? I finally took a huge leap of faith and scrapped the entire project. I found strength in my inner wisdom, which knew that I deserved more.
What evidence do you need to rediscover faith in something or in yourself? Are you looking for a lightning bolt? Are you waiting for a lottery win? Have you considered asking for what you want or does it seem like too much to hope for? Have you searched your inner knowing to see what the block is to your own success or happiness? Are you able to recognize what you do have in life?
Today, stop and take pleasure in life’s little miracles. Recognize that each day is a gift, and understand that every breath you take is a test of faith. If you need a little reminder, try these tips on how to find faith in your daily life:
- Have Faith in Lessons Learned
First ask yourself, “Where did my faith go?” What triggered the feeling that you are unsupported? It is a past hurt? Is it a “bad” decision? Is fear playing a role? Sometimes fear tells us we can’t have something and then we lose faith because it doesn’t happen. If you can identify the origin, ask yourself what valuable lesson that experience might have taught you and where you may be repeating that same lesson today.
- Affirm
Affirmations are very powerful. Even if you don’t believe the words initially, your body absorbs the meaning cell by cell. Try, “I have faith in myself and the process of life. I am protected and joyful each and every day.”
- Check Your Pancreas
When the pancreas is imbalanced it carries the emotional energy of feeling defeated by life. Make sure you keep your blood sugar in check by eating every 3-4 hours and eliminating sugar. You may need to see a holistic practitioner to create a special diet or rebalance key minerals.
- Look for Signs
Signs can come in all forms. It can be a song that you are meant to hear or a “coincidence” that repeats itself. Be specific about what kind of sign you need to see for an answer. For example, if you need to know whether to take that new job in Florida, ask for a certain number of signs that relate to Florida that can indicate a yes.
- Dream big, expect the best and let go
The more you can imagine for yourself the bigger your life can be. The key is to believe that you are the designer of your destiny. Write out your ideal life like you already have it and then let go, trust and enjoy the ride.

What Are Spiritual Portals?
Spiritual portals are moments of vibrational alignment in which the flow of energy between subtle planes and the physical plane intensifies. They often coincide with repeating numerical dates—such as 11/11 or 12/12—and significant astrological movements. During these periods, many people experience heightened sensitivity, mental clarity, or emotional openness, as the available energy activates internal processes of transformation.
Although these are not visible phenomena, their effect can be felt on physical, emotional, and spiritual levels. Some people notice changes in sleep patterns, deep introspective states, or a stronger connection with their intuition. Others perceive these portals as opportunities to close cycles, release blockages, and plant new intentions from a more conscious state.
In the series Quantum Effect, available on Gaia, the show explores how energy influences both individual and collective consciousness. Through this perspective, it becomes clear that we live in a vast energetic ocean where our decisions and vibrational states open different possibilities of experience. This understanding is especially helpful for comprehending the impact of spiritual portals—also known as energy portals or sacred portals—and how to use them consciously to elevate your vibration and awareness.
Key Dates of the Year When Spiritual Portals Open
Spiritual portals appear on specific dates that repeat numbers or vibrational patterns, such as 01/01 or 11/11. These moments are seen as opportunities to raise your personal frequency, release burdens from the past, and plant new intentions. Below are the 12 main portals of the year and the type of energy associated with each one.
- 01/01: Marks the beginning of the annual cycle and represents an opening to new opportunities. It’s an ideal time to set clear intentions and visualize your next steps.
- 02/02: Connects with duality and cooperation. Supports the reconciliation of opposites and the strengthening of personal relationships.
- 03/03: Its energy is linked to creativity and personal expression. A favorable day to start artistic or communication-based projects.
- 04/04: Reinforces stability and order. Encourages building solid foundations for long-term projects and organizing everyday life.
- 05/05: Represents change and transformation. Invites you to let go of the old and open to renewed experiences more aligned with your personal purpose.
- 06/06: Associated with harmony and balance. Encourages connection with family, compassion, and the search for inner peace.
- 07/07: Connects with spirituality and intuition. It’s a day to meditate, go deeper into self-knowledge, and listen to your inner voice.
- 08/08 (Lion’s Gate Portal): One of the most powerful portals of the year, aligned with the Leo constellation and the star Sirius. It’s associated with abundance, expansion, and the activation of personal energy.

- 12/12: Marks the energetic closure of the annual cycle. A time to integrate lessons and prepare for the new frequency of the year ahead.
Beyond Repeating Numbers: Other Portals Throughout the Year
In addition to spiritual portals that open on repeating dates, there are other times of the year when the energy of the planet and cosmos supports significant vibrational openings. These portals are associated with astronomical phenomena and movements in nature that directly impact collective consciousness.
- Solar eclipses: Considered powerful portals of initiation and revelation. Their energy drives deep changes and the manifestation of new realities.
- Lunar eclipses: Linked to the closing of cycles and emotional release. Help let go of the past and create space for the new.
- Equinoxes (March and September): Represent the balance between light and darkness. These are portals of renewal, inner balance, and harmony with nature.
- Solstices (June and December): Act as gateways of transformation. The summer solstice enhances vitality and expansion, while the winter solstice invites introspection and the planting of intentions.
- Planetary alignments: When two or more planets meet in conjunction, a unique energetic flow opens. These alignments support the expansion of consciousness and connection with higher realms.
How to Make the Most of Spiritual Portals
Connecting with the energy of spiritual portals is an opportunity to align personal intention with the frequency available on those days. The key lies in preparing consciously—creating space for reflection, inner openness, and the kind of energetic work that resonates most with you.
One of the most common ways to engage with these portals is through symbolic rituals, such as lighting candles, writing intentions in a journal, or working with crystals that enhance the vibration. These practices help focus the mind and direct energy toward clear goals, turning the portal into an ally for transformation.
Meditation, energy baths, and connection with nature are also recommended as ways to integrate the available energy. These actions support emotional clearing, mental clarity, and strengthening of the personal energy field, allowing the portal to act as a catalyst for well-being and spiritual evolution.
What Time Do Spiritual Portals Open and Close?
Spiritual portals do not activate at an exact hour, nor do they function like a switch that turns on and off. Their energy begins to be felt days before the marked date and often lingers even after it has passed, creating a vibrational field that accompanies the transition.
This means there’s no need to focus on a precise minute to connect with the portal. What matters is to tune in to the energy of the period, since its influence unfolds gradually and can be embraced flexibly depending on your personal needs.
