Wish Upon a Star: The Perseid Meteor Shower Might Just Change Your Life. {August 11}
How about a fantastic “eye-candy” experience?
Because of the light of the new moon, if you look up into the heavens on the night of August 11th, you may see up to 90 meteors an hour shower through the skies.
According to timeanddate.com:
“The 2015 Perseid meteor shower will peak around August 11. A new moon on August 14, 2015 will create perfect conditions for watching the meteor shower. The best time to view the Perseids, or most other meteor showers is when the sky is the darkest. Most astronomers suggest that depending on the Moon’s phase, the best time to view meteor showers is right before dawn.”
Well-known astrologer Leah Whitehorse does an excellent job describing this astronomical event:
“Every year between the 17th July and the 24th August, the Earth passes through a trail of debris left by the orbit of the comet Swift-Tuttle. The comet was discovered in 1862 but records of The Perseids date back to 36AD. As the Earth passes through the debris, the dust is drawn to the Earth’s atmosphere. A tiny speak of dust can burn spectacularly in the night sky. As many as 60—100 meteors per hour can be seen in a clear sky in the countryside. Traveling at around 37 miles per second the meteors heat up to somewhere in the region of 3000 degrees Fahrenheit and either vaporize or explode. As a result of this, the August sky in the Northern Hemisphere is filled with glorious streaks of light—shooting stars. If you have a wish to make, now might be a good time to catch a falling star!”
This meteor shower is called The Perseids because these meteors appear to emanate from the constellation ofPerseus. If you recall your Greek mythology, Perseus was the Greek hero who beheaded the venomous snake-headed, Medusa. This was no small feat, considering that gazing directly into her eyes turned onlookers into stone.
Think about Perseus as you look at The Perseids meteor shower. In ancient times, it was well known that shooting stars were considered a gift from the gods, symbolic of enlightenment and illumination from above.
This may be your gift, too!
