Astrology for the Traveler
Weather Charts by Liz Swoboda
Full Moon and New Moon charts are calculated for the location you want to travel to.
To time weather changes for any other longitude, check all transits and aspects to the Meridian or MC and IC (nadir) of the chart. Any planet in that angle - whether in a lunar chart or by transit will have a strong impression on the atmosphere and should be given serious consideration.
Nature of Planets
The Sun dominates the constitution of the atmosphere, the planets correspond to organic changes, and the Moon is functional, meaning the the Moon triggers and times the constitutional and organic modification of weather patterns.
Mercury stationary or conjunct the Sun brings high barometer and winds, in winter cold wave and blizzards.
