This study analyzes the relationship between Moon phases and historical cumulative rainfall in Mexico using daily records from 2,412 weather stations with quality-controlled data from 1960 to 2011. The results show a strong correlation: the highest cumulative rainfall occurred during the New Moon, while the lowest rainfall values were mainly associated with crescent and waning phases. The study identifies both national and regional patterns, suggesting a relevant relationship between lunar phases and historical rainfall behavior across Mexican territory.
