When does the solar eclipse occur in a year. What not to do on eclipse days

AT I wrote about eclipses and gave recommendations for this period. Now I want to dwell on what was not included in . So, in August 2017 we are waiting for two eclipses:


The eclipses of August 2017 will be on the axis at . Over the next year and a half, eclipses are on this axis, bringing to the fore the theme of Leo and Aquarius.

The lion is a symbol of imperative will and personal power, it is a leader, a monarch, a president. Aquarius is demos (Greek “people”), free citizens with civil rights. From this root comes the word and concept - democracy - the power of the people. This is parliament public organizations, civil movements. During the period when the eclipses follow the signs of Leo and Aquarius (until February 2019), new trends in society are determined, new trends in international relations, in the relationship between government and people, the “social contract”, the type of interaction is changing, is changing global political environment,subsequently becoming a stable trend for a long period. These are also themes of people in power, their destinies and their influence on world processes.


The eclipse begins at 15:46 GMT

Maximum phase at 18:21 GMT

The eclipse ends at 21:04 GMT

For Kyiv and Moscow +3.

Full blackout phase 2 minutes, 41 seconds.

August 21, 2017 will be at the North Node. The astrological community calls it the "Great American Eclipse" for good reason. Eclipse shadow passing through certain territories, indicates the countries that will be most affected by this eclipse. The path of the eclipse on August 21, 2017 covers the entire territory of the United States. The United States will be the zone of greatest visibility of this eclipse.For the first time since 1918, the shadow of an eclipse will cross the entire continent, and this is the first eclipse since 1776 whose total shadow passes exclusively through the United States.

Another reason this eclipse is considered significant for the United States is that it occurs at 28° 53" Leo - in conjunction with the natal ascendant and Mars of President Donald Trump, who was born on a lunar eclipse. In traditional astrology, the fate of the country associated with the map of its ruler, and significant transits to the map of the leader of the country may indicate not only important events in his fate, but also important events in the country as a whole.Given the growing tension around the administration of Donald Trump, the coming period could be a time of serious testing for him.or important initiatives, and will be decisive.

August 21 will be in exact trine with Uranus. This eclipse is more constructive than the previous one. If August 07 poses problems, then August 21 provides an opportunity to reach their solution. This period gives events a momentum that can be felt in our personal affairs for several years. "Absorption of light" makes this period unpredictable, causing a sense of uncertainty, which will be revealed later.

Leo's topics are creativity, love relationships, children, business related to art, show industry and entertainment, with the stock exchange and speculation, these are the topics of receiving money from parents and real estate.This eclipse will also activate Topics risky adventures, gambling, stock speculation.If this eclipse falls on a significant point in the natal chart, it may bring changes in our careers and leadership. At this time, our creativity, creative projects can get a result that will determine our future plans and tasks. Previous creative efforts can develop into more meaningful activity, we can decide to turn our hobby into a profession or an income source. The situations of this period may encourage you to take responsibility and manage what is happening.This period provides an opportunity to solve old problems in new ways, the opportunity to find a way out of difficulties using non-standard approaches. But for this you need to move away from the old stereotypes.

So, how to get through this period without creating additional problems for yourself?

The first thing to remember - Eclipses give significance to everything that happens at this time. I quote from my article: “At this time, especially near eclipses, you should carefully monitor all situations, meetings and new ideas. It must be remembered that every event that falls on an eclipse is more important than we might at first imagine. Ideas, proposals, projects and people that enter our lives during the “season” of eclipses become part of our life for a long period.”

But mistakes, delusions, miscalculations and transgressions also become more significant than at other times, and their consequences will be long-lasting. Therefore, we do not follow the lead of emotions and illusions, we rely on reason and prudence, we do not succumb to provocations and temptations. Important decisions should not be made during eclipses and even more so on the day of the eclipse. Rely on proven connections, prepare new steps. But new beginnings and projects need to be postponed to the period after September 06

Second thing to remember – the eclipses of this are connected with our awareness of our identity, our “I” different from others, our personal and creative tasks in a collective context. This is the theme: "I" and the collective, the ability not to dissolve in the interests of others, but to be able to build relationships so that cooperation or personal relationships do not interfere with our need to be ourselves. Do not follow the lead of others, do not get involved in dubious benefits and dependency relationships, do not compromise your principles and be true to yourself, even if this means parting with someone or something, or losing something. in Leo calls for a balance between our individual tasks and what other people expect or want from us, between personal and social life between the demands that others place on us and our need to be ourselves. An important psychological side of this period will be to be able not to forget about your interests and tasks for the sake of someone or in the name of something, not to be led by the opinion of the crowd. Such a position will be the key to solving the problems that will arise during this period in the relationship. If we make ourselves dependent on the approval of a reference group or collective, we may lose personal initiative, and with it the new opportunities and respect of the group on which we used to depend. This is a psychological emphasis on a long period that needs to be paid attention to. I wrote more about this in the material

A rare and colorful phenomenon, visible throughout the CIS and Georgia, will occur on the evening of August 7 from 21:24 to 23:19 Tbilisi time - in almost two hours the Moon will pass through the northern part of the earth's shadow, plunging into it with its southern edge by a quarter disk.

The shadow will pass along the lower part, however, it will be possible to observe the eclipse with the naked eye, and if you want to see a brighter and more colorful picture, experts advise leaving the city. There you will be able to see the lunar eclipse on August 7, 2017 more clearly if the weather is clear.

Russians, with the exception of residents of Chukotka and Kamchatka, where morning will come and the moon will disappear below the horizon, will be able to observe this rare natural phenomenon from 20:24 to 22:19 Moscow time, according to the website of the Moscow Planetarium.

The Moscow Planetarium invites everyone to see a rare astronomical phenomenon in the Sky Park from 20:00 Moscow time - astronomers promise that the celestial performance can be seen, and even notice the color changes of part of the lunar disk to burgundy red, which usually occurs during lunar eclipses, although The moon will be fairly low on the horizon.

Several telescopes will work at the astronomical site at once to observe the phenomenon, in addition, astronomers will talk about celestial objects and the phases of the eclipse - the event will take place only if the weather is clear, which will be announced later on the day of observations.

Tickets for the event will be available on August 7 from 19:00 to 22:00 at the box office of the Moscow Planetarium.

Do not miss the lunar eclipse on August 7, 2017, as it is quite rare and colorful phenomenon that can be seen with the naked eye.

At the same time, astrologers warn that the lunar eclipse on August 7, 2017 coincides with the full moon, so you should try to spend the day calmly - without quarreling or swearing, so as not to spoil your mood and, most importantly, not to scare away your luck.

On the positive side, the lunar eclipse will take place in Aquarius, which means that the Moon on August 7 gives a chance to decide on changes in life, which is sometimes so necessary for everyone. The day is also good for introspection, spiritual quest.

The eclipse is a dark time, so there is a risk that bad desires and thoughts may visit you, so make every effort so that they do not come true. There is also a high probability of quarrels and conflicts on the day, betrayal and infidelity may take place. Therefore, astrologers advise showing attention and understanding to your loved ones and showing how dear they are to you.

The state of health for most people will be fairly stable, although the mood of many may not be very positive. On this day, you will want solitude, but you should not completely protect yourself from loved ones and move away from communication.

On the day of the lunar eclipse, you will need to be active in your work, but be careful and careful when solving important issues.

Lunar eclipses

Lunar eclipses occur at the moments of the full moon, when three celestial bodies The sun, earth and moon are in a straight line. During lunar eclipses, the earth's shadow falls on the moon. Lunar eclipses are total and partial, depending on whether the shadow covers the entire lunar disk or part of it.

If the earth's shadow covers only part of the moon, then this is a partial shadow lunar eclipse. If the earth's shadow does not touch the lunar disk at all, but passes near it, a penumbral lunar eclipse occurs. It is said that the "penumbra" of the Earth lies on the Moon. If the earth's penumbra covers only part of the moon, then this is a partial penumbral lunar eclipse (it is very difficult to notice it with the eye).

The next lunar eclipse will be total on January 31, 2018. It will be visible throughout Russia, except for the western and southwestern regions, where the Moon will appear in the evening only at the end of the eclipse.

In August, earthlings will see two more beautiful natural phenomena- a total eclipse of the Sun, which is called the Great American, will take place on August 21, and the peak of activity of the most beautiful meteor shower of the year - the Perseids - is expected from August 12 to 13.

Material prepared on the basis of open sources

First solar eclipse in 2017 it will be a ring one, and it will take place on February 26 at 17:53 Moscow time. Solar eclipse in Pisces.

In Russia, it can be observed (partially in the European part of the country).

In addition to the Sun and the Moon, there is a whole cluster of planets in Pisces: Mercury, Neptune, Chiron and the Descending Node. The eclipse is mainly associated with the spiritual realm, the rejection of principles that hinder development. In addition, this stellar event can become a catalyst for revealing secrets, intrigues and other hidden agendas. Since the eclipse and a large cluster of planets in a water sign, floods and other incidents associated with the water element are likely. Tension in society increases the opposition of Jupiter in Libra with Mars and Uranus in Aries. After the eclipse for several days (February 27-28), armed conflicts or catastrophes cannot be ruled out, since as many as three warlike planets (Mars, Uranus and Pluto) are in destructive degrees.

The second solar eclipse in 2017 will be total, and it will happen on August 21, at 21:25 Moscow time. Solar eclipse in Leo

The Sun and Mars conjunct the Rising Node in Leo will bring to the fore the bright personalities who have become famous since the previous lunar eclipse. It's not just about politicians - strong athletes or talented actors can be in the zone of general attention. Leo sets the task to stand out from the crowd, stop hiding behind other people's backs, confidently declare himself, demonstrate strength and abilities.

Residents of Russia will not be able to watch it. On this day, caution must be exercised for those people who were born between August 20 and 22;

Lunar eclipses 2017

The first lunar eclipse (in the sign of Leo) in 2017 will be penumbral, and will occur on February 11 at 03:43 Moscow time - in Russia it will be possible to see partially.

It is noteworthy that the Sun-Moon axis will be at 23 degrees Leo and Aquarius. Sun at 23 degrees. Aquarius is the fall of Pluto. Moon at 23 degrees. Leo is the degree of exaltation of Pluto. This eclipse is able to manifest the powerful energies of Pluto, and uncontrollable, and lead to riots and even disasters. Given the tau-square of the Black Moon of 30 gad. Scorpio to the Lunar nodes, negative energies will be very strong. Unless necessary, you should not attend mass events, participate in rallies, travel underground. Those who are fond of magic, it is better to avoid serious rituals.

After this eclipse, elemental leaders who own the technologies of mass hypnosis may appear. One such person is able to capture the attention of a huge audience and force them to act on their own.

The second lunar eclipse in 2017 will be partial, on August 7 at 21:20 Moscow time there will be a lunar eclipse in the sign of Aquarius

Friendship, cooperation, collective values ​​(which may run counter to the individual interests of charismatic individuals) will come first. The ruler of the eclipse is Uranus in creative aspects to the Sun and Moon, which gives hope for an unexpected way out of the crisis. The conjunction of the Sun and Mars in Leo indicates the emergence of bright leaders.

The eclipse is especially important for Russia as a country that is symbolically associated with the sign of Aquarius.

In Russia it will not be possible to see. Its influence on themselves will be most clearly felt by those people who were born in the period from August 6 to 8.

In 2017, the inhabitants of the planet Earth expects two solar eclipses. Moreover, one of them (solar eclipse) will be total, which means it will be especially significant. The second solar eclipse will be annular (annular).

A total eclipse of the Sun is a phenomenon in which the Moon completely covers the solar disk, and people watching from the Earth over what is happening, the Sun will not be visible at all.

The phenomenon of an annular solar eclipse is not much more complicated. During such an event, a certain rim will be visible from the Earth, which will remain from the Sun when it hides behind the lunar surface.

An annular solar eclipse will occur on February 26, 2017, and a total solar eclipse will be visible to earth on August 21, 2017.

In addition to solar eclipses, the inhabitants of the Earth will also be able to see lunar eclipses. Lunar eclipses occur only during full moons, in 2017 there will be two of them: penumbral and partial.

A penumbral lunar eclipse implies that during this phenomenon, the Earth will not fall under a direct moon shadow, but only in its penumbra, which is why the change in the brightness of the illumination of the Moon will not be fixed by the naked eye. A penumbral lunar eclipse will occur on February 11, 2017.

In the case when the Moon only partially falls under the Earth's shadow, astronomers speak of a partial lunar eclipse. You can watch it on August 7, 2017.

The influence of eclipses

Eclipses have always had a special and important sacred meaning, especially in astrology. In ancient times, they saw an evil omen, believed that they cause negative events and phenomena, such as war, famine or natural disasters. The phenomenon of a total solar eclipse was considered especially significant and even dangerous.

In our time, eclipses are not perceived as apocalyptic. However, the days of eclipses, both solar and lunar, are always special.

Astrologically, eclipses signal the beginning or end of a developmental cycle in life, which can have both a positive and a negative impact.

Modern astrologers believe that eclipses and the events taking place these days show the direction of personal growth and where we are given opportunities. As a rule, their influence brings changes associated with the beginnings or completion of something in your life. At the same time, total eclipses, as a rule, are always associated with influences that are of a fateful nature.

It is important to note that if something important begins on the days of a solar eclipse, then on the days of the lunar one something is destroyed. For example, if there is a desire to drastically change your lifestyle or break off any relationship, then it is best to do this at the time of a lunar eclipse.

Any of us can feel inexplicable anxiety and concern during the days of eclipses. There is a possibility of making wrong decisions due to irritability and absent-mindedness.

On eclipse days, it becomes more difficult to understand what is good and what is bad. It is not clear what suits or does not suit us. Often during this period we are easier to succumb to bad influence, we want to break and destroy everything. That is why it is worth refraining from serious decisions on the days when eclipses occur. New business should also not be started at this time.

Eclipses can cause sudden changes in business, relationships, and more. If we talk about the impact of eclipses on the personal life and fate of a particular person, then for some earthlings, unexpected accidents, divorces, losses and other negative events become more likely.

It is necessary to be very careful and attentive during an eclipse. It is advisable to avoid travel.

Astrologers recommend not to plan new business for this period, not to conclude serious agreements and contracts, not to make large purchases. It is better to refuse planned medical surgical operations. It is recommended to spend this time in prayers, reading books, immersing yourself in your inner world.

It must be remembered that everything that happens on days that are close to the date of the eclipse (plus or minus three days from the date of the eclipse) can be fatal.

Also, any eclipses, especially solar eclipses, affect the body and physical well-being of a person, and this influence begins to appear two weeks before and 2 weeks after this event (for lunar eclipses, the effect is felt in “plus or minus two or three days”). This is especially felt by the elderly, people with cardiovascular diseases and problems with the nervous system.

During a solar eclipse, the risk of cardiovascular diseases increases, since the Sun controls the heart.

In particular, studies by medical scientists have shown that the human body begins to respond to a solar eclipse as soon as the solar disk is closed by the Moon: an hour after the start of the eclipse, blood pressure rises in hypertensive patients, blood vessels constrict, and the heart increases the power of blood ejection; blood begins to flow unevenly to different hemispheres of the brain.

A solar eclipse polarizes health problems. The reason is that according to oriental medicine The Sun sends us a positive charge or Yang energy, and the Moon - Yin - takes energy. The Chinese believe that the day of a solar eclipse is a temporary victory of the feminine Yin over the masculine Yang. To avoid feeling unwell, on this day you should take a contrast shower and avoid active actions.

At the same time, the effects that the luminaries have on us are also healing. They create a load on the body and in this way they train it. If you are relatively healthy, then during this period you may feel only slight dizziness or increased fatigue, nothing more. The body these days gathers strength and is activated.

By the way, people born on the day of the eclipse and the coming days before and after this event, according to astrologers, are extraordinary personalities and it is difficult for them to change something in their destiny, because. in their lives, as a rule, fatal, predetermined circumstances and situations play a large role. Many of them become well-known scientists, researchers and people of creative professions.

(at 22:31:55 UTC in ° Leo sign 0′)

The eclipse will be able to be observed by residents of most of the territory of Russia (with the exception of the eastern regions), and its maximum penumbral phase will be 1.014 when the Moon passes through the southern part of the earth's penumbra.

With this phase, the Moon will almost touch the Earth's shadow (the maximum shadow phase will be -0.03), so the eclipse will be well observed even with the naked eye.

According to astrology and Feng Shui, during eclipses, the flow of energy of one or another luminary is partially or completely blocked. In the case of a lunar eclipse, this is the Moon, but it will not be completely eclipsed, that is, the eclipse will be penumbral.

Since the night luminary is responsible for the soul, subconsciousness, humanity and intuition, then, accordingly, these characteristics will partially suffer.

The moon is the personification of a woman - a symbol of calmness, kindness, caring and endurance. That is why during this period it is difficult for many to keep emotions in themselves, to remain calm and restraint in conflict situations and make correct and reasonable decisions. In all your actions, it is emotions, and not cold reason, that will have a huge influence. Therefore, as you understand, it is undesirable to change your life during this period, to decide something and carry out major agreements and deals.

It is during this period that many will awaken the desire to achieve justice, which will be devoid of any mercy and soul. If you do not restrain such impulses, then nothing good can be achieved. It must be remembered that for each situation it is necessary to look for individual approach And do not forget sometimes to give free rein to your spiritual impulses.

(at 12:10:55 UTC in ° sign Pisces 0′)

The band of the annular phase will pass through the waters of the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, as well as across the territory of southern South America and southern Africa. The duration of the annular phase at the maximum of the phenomenon will reach only 44 seconds at a phase of 0.992. In this case, the thinnest ring of this eclipse will be observed.

An annular solar eclipse will be well observed in the southern parts of Chile and Argentina, Angola, in the southwest of Katanga province.

Partial phases of the eclipse will be visible in the South and West Africa, southern South America and Antarctica.

The sun is a symbol of masculine qualities - the struggle for justice, perseverance, intelligence, willpower and assertiveness. And therefore, many of us will be subject to a certain melancholy and breakdown.

Our inner strengths will come to naught, and anxiety will come in their place, and some fears may even come to mind. Well, during this period, each of us will have to make a lot of efforts so as not to get out of the rut and not lose our ability to work. Astrologers also do not advise bold decisions to be put into practice, this can lead to irreversible consequences that will only bring losses and troubles. Therefore, we must try to avoid sudden changes in life.

But those good intentions that you may have, try to implement, but do not overdo it. During solar eclipses, there is often a desire to change the world in better side, but remember that such changes must begin with yourself. commit good deed help someone in need - this will give you a boost of good energy and can drive away melancholy.

(at 15:47:46 UTC in ° sign Aquarius 0′)

This eclipse will be observed almost throughout Russia and the CIS countries (with the exception of the northernmost and easternmost regions of the country), and its maximum phase will reach 0.25.

The Earth's natural satellite will pass through the northern part of the Earth's shadow during this eclipse. From the Moon at this time there is a partial and total solar eclipse.

This time you will have to put in a lot of effort to save what you have been working on for a while. For example, if you decide to start playing sports, then these days your enthusiasm will fade a little. Well, do not stop halfway, remember that the path to success can be thorny and you need to work hard to achieve what you want. The period of the lunar eclipse is a time when it is difficult to restrain your negative emotions. If you fall for such bad tricks of the night luminary, then when this period passes, you will have to work hard to restore your reputation.

Lunar eclipses are the period when all the secrets come out. It is extremely difficult to keep something secret at this time. Moreover, relatives and friends will react sharply to the fact that something is being hidden from them. Therefore, it is better to open all the cards even before the eclipse, when each of you will be calm and cool.

(at 15:46:56 UTC in ° Leo sign 0′)

This total eclipse will occur at the new moon on August 21, and the total phase band will pass through the waters of the Pacific and Atlantic oceans, crossing the North American continent from west to east. The maximum duration of the complete phase will reach 2 minutes 40 seconds at phase 1.03. The best way to see the total phase of the eclipse will be in the United States. The partial phases of the eclipse will be visible in North America, and also partly in Western Europe and in South America.

This total solar eclipse of 145 saros is a saros repetition of the total solar eclipse of August 11, 1999. The next eclipse of this saros will occur on September 2, 2035.

Best of all, the eclipse will be observed in the city of Carbondale (USA). By the way, this locality will become a unique place where 2 total solar eclipses will be observed within 7 years - in 2017 and 2024.

Also, the eclipse will be well observed in North American cities: Salem (Oregon), Idaho Falls, Casper (Wyoming), Grand Island (Nebraska), Nashville and Columbia (South Carolina).

In most of Russia, this eclipse will not be visible. Partial phases will be observed only in the extreme northeast of the country and on the Chukchi Peninsula. The maximum visible phase of the eclipse - approximately 0.4 - will be observed in the cities of Anadyr, Provideniya and Beringovsky.

Moon phases and eclipses 2017
- calendar of lunar phases and eclipses for 2017, exact dates

AT recent times astronomy has ceased to be a compulsory subject at school, as a result, the worldview of some young people in this area is simply amazing ... Therefore, excuse me, I preface the publication of the calendar with a small article.

Moon phases. Scheme of phase change during orbital motion, miniature Seosnews9 Sergey Ov"

Since ancient times, and among many nations even today, the Moon and the Sun play the role of a large celestial clock, counting years, months and weeks. Years are counted by the Sun, and months and weeks are counted by the Moon. The first ancient lunar calendars were based on observations of the movement of the border between the shadow and light parts, called the terminator, on the surface of the moon. At the same time, four clearly fixed visual states, called the phases of the moon, were distinguished:

The first - when the Moon is not illuminated by the Sun - is the new moon, the beginning of the month.

The second - when the border between light and shadow divides the visible circle of the Moon in half (in the Northern Hemisphere, the illuminated part is observed on the right) - this phase is called the first quarter;

Third - the Moon is completely illuminated by the Sun: full moon, middle of the month;

And in the fourth state - the border between light and shadow again divides the visible circle of the Moon in half (in the Northern Hemisphere the illuminated part is observed on the left) - this phase is called the third or last quarter.

It is worth noting. that the Moon moves from one of these phases to the next on average for a little over seven days, that's why there are exactly seven days in a week - this is the legacy of the first lunar calendars!

The first compilers of calendars perceived the phase changes of the Moon as a given of nature, without going into explanations of the causes of the observed. The explanation of this phenomenon was obtained only with the emergence of the first ancient civilizations in Mesopotamia. Then the understanding came that the Moon is a ball moving around the Earth, and the change of lunar phases occurs as a result of this movement, since in this case the angle of its illumination by the Sun changes. A diagram of the change of lunar phases due to the orbital motion of the Moon is presented in the splash screen of the page (Click on it to enlarge).
By the way, in the enlarged figure, you can see a rather rare phenomenon: an ash-gray Moon on a new moon - this happens when the Earth on the side facing the Moon is all or almost all covered with clouds and scattered by clouds enough light to make the "New Moon" visible.

Note: At the time of the astronomical new moon, it is impossible to see the Moon - it is located too close to the Sun, but a few hours before and after this moment there is already a chance (according to weather conditions) to see the ash-gray moon ...

A full moon supermoon looks 7% bigger and 15% brighter than a regular moon, and you can get very beautiful photos. Especially for photographers, additional data is provided (for Moscow and the Moscow region):
