Full Moon of July 18, 2008 – Long-Term Weather Forecast for California

Full Moon of July 18, 2008 - Long-Term Weather Forecast for California

The Full Moon this July promises to bring some much-needed moisture to the San Francisco Bay area. As the long term weather forecast horoscope for summer 2008 showed, this was going to be a hot season – in more ways than one. Mars was in Leo, a fire sign, right on the Midheaven in San Francisco and we have been getting unusually high numbers of wildfires in this part of California since summer began. I would expect that Mars’s double-hot influence will lead to heat waves as well.

But relief may be in sight for a while; the Full Moon of July 18th falls on the Midheaven in San Francisco, and there should at least be cooling temperatures during the following week, and perhaps even some mist or light rain if we are lucky. Most likely, however, the promised cool-moist lunar influence will not show up until July 20th, when the Moon transits the 10th house cusp of the Cancer Ingress horoscope, activating that chart.

As the temperatures rise this week (mid-90F in the shade), any promised cool air is much anticipated and appreciated!

    What does the solar ingress into Leo foretell? Sure happy to see you posting again..I have missed them.

    Hi Bob,

    Good question! I’m somewhat ambivalent regarding the non-cardinal ingresses; they don’t seem to be as reliable as the cardinal ones. It’s one of those “I’ll check it if I have time” things. Have you had good results with them?

    Thanks,
    Nina

    i don’t know much about the stars, but does the age of Aquarius begin in 2012?

    Hi Abbie,

    Good question – so good that it probably merits its own article. I would say that the age of Aquarius does not have a precise beginning, because the ages are marked by the constellations where the Sun rises when it enters Aries.

    Since the constellations are loose configurations of stars, where one ends and another begins can be a bit fuzzy, so we can be looking at a potential variation of decades or centuries. It’s really more of a gradual transition, rather than going to sleep one evening in the Piscean Age and waking up in the Aquarian Age.

    Best wishes,
    Nina
