Look up and be sneaky with wonder: Meteor Lyrid shower will charm the sky this month.
The recordings of this celestial shower date back to 2,700 years. Citizens of ancient China may have spoken about the Lyrid shower when they were witnesses of meteors “falling like rain” again to 687 BC.
This cosmic phenomenon has been named for the nearby constellation Lyra, in itself a reference to the freedom performed by Orpheus, the most tragic widow/trouble in the long and bloody litania of Greek mythology.
Shower Lyrid is made up of waste from comet C/1861 G1 Thatcher, called for AE thatcher, who discovered it in 1861.
Researchers speculate that the comet will take about 415 years to complete a full orbit.
Meanwhile, the meteor lyrid shower is said to “explode” or produce a shocking number of meteors every 60 years. The other explosion of lyrid is due to 2042.
Although 2025 is not a year of explosion (at least not literally), April showers will still add a hell of a Sky show.
When does the meteor lyrid shower start?
Meteor Lyrid has peaked at the end of April for thousands of years. It starts at small explosions on the eve of April 16 and the peaks of visibility next week.
What is the best viewing time for the meteor lyrid shower?
The dazzling screen will peak on April 21 and April 22, but it will be visible until April 29.
What is a meteor?
Meteors arise from comet particles and asteroid waste. When this glorious detrit travels around the Sun, it leaves a path behind.
When the earth passes through these paths, the pieces of dust of space collide with our atmosphere and burn themselves, and their disintegration creates color and fire in the sky.
Where to see meteor lyrid / shower meteor Lyrid 2025
Sky show will be visible from most points on Earth.
The northern hemisphere denizen will be given the best appearance. This year, because radiation rises before midnight, peak visibility will be before the moon of the semical crescent grows after midnight.
Stargazers should aim to find a place away from city lights or street lights and allow their eyes to fit in the dark for about 30 minutes.
How many meteors should you wait to see?
Sometimes, lyrids can wow viewers with up to 100 meteors per hour, but on average, the shower starts 10 to 20 meteors per hour.
Meteors do not flow through the sky, but produce a bright occasional flash called a fire ball.
Astrology of the MEteor Lyrid Shower
Neda Farr, an astrologer resident in the Flirtini meeting app and founder of the Starcrosseled astrology application, says the Lyrid Shower creates favorable conditions for the redefinition of desire, especially since, on April 19, the sun moves to the tugged bulls, strengthening the need for physical intimacy.
“In short? Prepare for fireworks-like and inside, as the planetary formation ignites fast, emotionally burnt ties,” Farr warns.
She notes that some signs of the zodiac will feel the burning more intensely than others.
Water signs: Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces
Farr points out that water signs will be activated by Mars movement through cancer, strengthening emotions and sexual energy.
“Cancers will become more protective – on the border with possession – as they require security. Meanwhile, Scorpio and Pisces can find themselves in the midst of a romantic awakening. For these signs, it is essential to embrace the moment and be honest for your needs and desires.”
She notes that under the beaten sky of the lyrid shower, water signs must explore the type of naked intimacy born of true weakness.
“Powerful waves of passion collide with sensitivity raised to rejection or distance – but trust your intuition, lower your guard and speak your truth. Don’t let fear keep you back from following the proximity you want.”
Gemini and Sagittarius
For this variable shaft, Farr foreshadows hot and rapid glowing romance.
It encourages archers and twin people to buy the ticket and enjoy the journey – however short it may be.
“Wait the unexpected: unforeseen messages, spontaneous meetings and exciting opportunities for connection. It is a moment to enjoy the adventure, embrace the emotion of something new and let your heart explore. Say yes, be brave and flirt – but remember that not every spark burns forever.”
Signs of Earth: Taurus, Virgin and Capricorn
Farr predicts that safety signs that require safety can be shocked by the bright, disruption of the Lyrid shower:
“The unexpected flights of clarity can shake the foundations of your lasting but stagnant relationship. As the sun bulls supports your practical approach to love, lyrids will promote the pot, making you reassess everything you have built,” she says.
“Is your relationship strong, or are you just deciding on stability? The message of the planets about earth signs is clear: don’t resist the unexpected; explore it.”
