Let’s stargaze with purpose.
What Are the Perseids?
The Perseids Meteor Shower occurs each year when Earth passes through debris left behind by Comet Swift–Tuttle. These tiny pieces of dust and rock burn up in our atmosphere—creating glowing streaks we call “shooting stars.”
At their peak, the Perseids can deliver 50–100 meteors per hour under ideal conditions.
This year, the peak occurs overnight August 12–13, though a waning gibbous moon will slightly dim visibility. Still, the brightest meteors—sometimes called fireballs—will cut through the moonlight and be visible, especially in the pre-dawn sky.

Spiritual Meaning of Meteor Showers
In ancient times, shooting stars were seen as sacred signs—messages from the divine, windows to other worlds, or omens of transition.
Spiritually, meteor showers often represent:
-
Sudden clarity or insight
-
Release of stagnant energy
-
Rapid manifestation or realignment
This is amplified during Leo season—a time associated with courage, creativity, and reconnecting with your inner fire.
When meteors streak through the sky, it’s a cosmic reminder: your life can change in a flash—if you’re ready to receive.

Let the Sky Speak to You
The Perseids remind us that the universe is always in motion—and so are we. Sometimes the most powerful insights come in quiet, awe-filled moments under the stars.
