We are always surrounded by hundreds of stars in our galaxy, but they aren’t always visible from where we are. However, this summer features many meteor showers, and the next one to reach its peak will be the Perseids on August 11 and 12. Meteor showers bring a magical influx of energy, but this very week we’ll have many more events directly impacting astrology and horoscopes.
The Perseids get their name because their radiant, the point from which they “fall”, is located in the constellation Perseus, the Greek hero who defeated Medusa. For this reason, many traditions suggest that we will receive the courage to face our fears and our shadow. However, we will have the necessary tools, since Perseus was armed with Hades’ helmet of invisibility, Athena’s shield, and Hermes’ sandals.
Regardless of their mythological associations, in astrology the Perseids symbolize transformation and rebirth by breaking free from limiting patterns. To achieve this, we must embark on an inner journey to confront unhealed wounds so we can finally heal them properly. We’ll need to forge a new path, and to do so, we’ll need the courage to move forward, so faith will be another important factor. Remember all those dreams; hold on to the ones that still resonate with you, and emerge stronger than before.
As if that weren’t enough, this very week, horoscopes show we have a total solar eclipse, which will also prompt us to confront deep-seated emotions that have been stagnant and must be brought to light. The same goes for Pluto being retrograde in Aquarius and Neptune being retrograde in Aries.
Zodiac Signs Most Influenced by The Perseids Meteor Shower
Leo: You’re one of the signs that will feel all this energy the most, not only because it happens when Leo is in the Sun, but also when there’s a solar eclipse. That’s why, if you know how to channel your energy, you’ll be able to use it to your advantage to be productive, magnetic, and basically the center of attention.
Aquarius: Your brilliant mind is what will help you know how to manage your resources. You’ll have the connections to streamline processes, close deals, or face challenges that will ultimately benefit you.
