Eclipses in April. The essence of a solar eclipse

Eclipses are some of the most anticipated natural phenomena. They occur with some frequency, so scientists can predict in advance the dates of future eclipses of the Sun or Moon.

This is important not only from the point of view of astronomy, but also from the point of view of astrology, bioenergy, because such phenomena always make the world a little different for a short period of time. To know how the Sun and Moon will affect you and me during eclipses, try not to forget about them by tracking the lunar calendar or making notes for yourself.

What is an eclipse

Imagine a dark room, devoid of light. The only source is a flashlight. Let the lantern be the Sun. Let's say it shines directly in your face from the opposite side of the room. You are sitting on a chair or on a sofa, that is, you are on Earth. Imagine someone standing in front of you or... To illustrate this, imagine that someone takes a ball and carries it right in front of a street lamp. If you work on a full scale, then you will need, for example, a pea or something round and small. If you look at a pea, holding it with your fingers directly in front of your face, it can cover the Sun, that is, the lantern. This is a solar eclipse.

With a lunar eclipse, things are a little more complicated. Imagine that the Earth and Moon switch places. Now you and I are casting a shadow on the Moon. Since the Earth is larger than the Moon, the shadow passes across the lunar disk much more often and more clearly.

Upcoming eclipses of 2017

There has already been one solar and one lunar eclipse in February. It's already summer, and it's time for the second "wave" of eclipses. They will happen in August.

On August 7 there will be a partial eclipse of the Moon in Aquarius. It will happen in the evening, at approximately 18:20 Moscow time. It will only be visible from a telescope, but still not well enough.

There will be a total solar eclipse in Leo on August 21st. It means that this event will be very spectacular. Unfortunately, it will only be possible to observe it in North America. The partial eclipse will be slightly visible in the Russian Far East.

Thus, August will be very busy. If you wish, you can watch the broadcast or recording solar eclipse August 21, but don’t worry too much about this, because beautiful eclipses happen every 5-6 years, and maybe more often. Of course, the lunar disk does not completely cover the Sun. In the same place on the globe, a total eclipse of the Sun occurs once every 200 years, which can already upset astronomy lovers.

How eclipses affect human energy

Both solar and lunar eclipses represent the opposition of the Moon and the Sun. You and I feel this ourselves. Remember that before any such phenomenon a day or even two is not necessary:

  • abuse alcohol;
  • disrupt the daily routine;
  • overexert;
  • be in stressful situations;
  • accept important decisions;
  • start some important things.

On such days, you can and even need to part with the past, getting rid of garbage and junk at home. Cleanse not only the place where you live, but also your soul. Don’t be afraid to dream, forgetting about all negative moments, events and people in order to remove negative programs.

August eclipses are dangerous from an astrological point of view. The lunar eclipse on August 7 will take place in the Sign of Aquarius. On this day you should ask for forgiveness from those whom you have offended by word or deed in the past. Don't quarrel with anyone, especially if you don't want to have problems at work and school. Aquarius may make you say something that will turn your loved one away from you forever.

The Eclipse of the Sun in Leo on August 21 will be dangerous for anyone who wants to maintain leadership. You should not make empty promises on this day. Don't put yourself above other people: show your colleagues and subordinates, as well as close people, that you are equal. This will build trust.

Get rid of unnecessary emotions from your head. August is an energetically dangerous month, but luck will smile on you if you put some effort into it. You will succeed if you are careful enough on August 7th and 21st.

Positive thinking will allow you to overcome any problems, because the law of attraction always works, even on the days of an eclipse. Good luck and don't forget to press the buttons and

Every day of the week affects people differently. The energy of the stars and planets allows you to perform everyday duties...

On August 7th you probably watched unusual phenomenon- moon eclipse. It was interesting because it was observed throughout Russia, as well as throughout Eurasia, East Africa, Australia and New Zealand, and on islands in the Pacific and Indian oceans. The earth's shadow covered a quarter of the lunar disk. The greatest phase of the eclipse was observed between 20 and 22 Moscow time, the peak of the event was the full moon at 21:20. The shadow of the earth is much larger than the Moon, so it does not completely darken, but only scatters the light. An eclipse does not hide part of the lunar disk from view, but darkens it, giving it a reddish tint.

There are usually 2-3 lunar eclipses per year, each of which is necessarily paired with a solar eclipse. The eclipse, paired with the partial lunar eclipse on August 7, will occur on August 21 from approximately 20 to 23 hours Moscow time. It will be complete and will pass through a strip of 200 km across the United States, affecting the UK and Chukotka. We would like to talk in more detail about this upcoming important astronomical event. A week ago we already talked about it, what solar eclipses are and how our ancestors treated them. The upcoming solar eclipse will occur in 2 weeks and It’s important to start preparing for it now.

So. There will be a total solar eclipse on August 21. The shadow from the eclipse will practically not affect the territory of Russia. And for the most part it will only affect the territory of the United States, which is why it is also called American. But! This does not mean that this phenomenon will not affect the rest of the world. It has long been believed that a solar eclipse is a bad sign. After all, the flow of our great luminary, albeit temporarily, is blocked by the Moon.

During severe natural phenomena - magnetic storms, solar explosions and eclipses - the number of patients suffering from cardiovascular diseases is increasing. Interestingly, astrologers think much more radically. They believe that during an eclipse conflicts cannot be ruled out in families, at work. You need to treat loved ones very carefully if you don’t want to lose them, says astrologer Lyubov Shekhmatova.

Research on the influence of solar eclipses on the human body

By the way, human body responds to solar eclipse. And this was proven by Siberian medical scientists from the Research Institute of Space Anthropoecology. During the solar eclipse on March 29, 2006, they monitored the condition of 40 volunteers. The study was conducted on two groups: 20 healthy young people and 20 patients Science Center clinical and experimental medicine. All volunteers had their heart, brain and bioactive points on the skin measured. Scientists were surprised when the human body began to react to a natural phenomenon immediately, as soon as the solar disk began to be covered by the Moon. An hour after the eclipse, 70% of hypertensive patients from the second group had increased arterial pressure, the blood vessels narrowed, and the heart increased the power of blood emission, which began to flow unevenly to different hemispheres of the brain. Nervous system the volunteers were clearly incapacitated.

Historical statistics also indicate that during eclipses The level of man-made accidents on Earth is sharply increasing: disasters and earthquakes, epidemics and wars, riots and accidents of various kinds. Very often during eclipses all sorts of fatal events occur. For example, Princess Diana died two days before the eclipse on September 2. Another example is the sinking of the Titanic. It was launched during an eclipse, and sank on April 12, 1912, also literally before the “celestial event.” If we talk about states, the founding date of Yugoslavia in 1918 also fell on an eclipse. This state has ceased to exist and the peoples living on its territory are haunted by a streak of failures.

Many coups, riots, and military conflicts were staged to coincide with a solar eclipse. The famous mutiny of General Mussharaf in Pakistan, according to some sources a protege of the CIA, which led to a change in power in the country and its political course as a whole, was specially timed precisely at the moment of the eclipse, which gave strength to the general himself and weakened his opponents. The general himself was born precisely at the moment of the eclipse and managed to manage this in his favor.

According to astrologers, the effect of an eclipse begins 2 weeks before its peak. Already 2 weeks before the eclipse, there is a densification of energy on planet Earth, including mental images. Therefore, the closer to the eclipse, the more chances they have for implementation in the future. Our ancestors, knowing in advance about the eclipse, devoted this time to prayers and repentance. So let's follow their example and don't waste these 2 weeks before the eclipse. And on the day of the eclipse itself, August 21, on our website There will be broadcasts all day dedicated to him. The broadcast will also take place during the beginning of the eclipse - at 21.00 Moscow time.

The eclipse tends to put everything in its place, and this is the best time for the changes you so wanted. Live the eclipse corridor as the person you want to be. Make the most of this wonderful period!

Remember, these days you are laying down a program for the next 9 years.

When the Sun, Earth and Moon, moving in their orbits, find themselves on the same line, and at the same time the Moon is covered by the Earth from the Sun and is in its shadow - this phenomenon is called a lunar eclipse, so it only happens when the moon is full. When, being in line with the Earth, the Moon covers the Sun, a solar eclipse occurs - it happens at the moment of the new moon. An eclipse can be total or partial, depending on how precise the degree of conjunction of the planets is, whether they fall completely or only partially in the shadow of the planet passing through the middle.

A lunar eclipse promotes internal changes.

If in a mild form, then changes will come in the form of insights, prophetic dreams or meetings that will change a lot in life.

If it’s hard, there will be a collapse of illusions, expectations, deep disappointment, devastation, and a change in life guidelines.

A solar eclipse brings external changes in reality, actual changes occur.

If in a mild form, then the people whom this concerns will finally take the fateful step that they have long dreamed of: they will start a relationship, a project, a trip; end their relationship, leave their job, move to permanent residence, get married, divorced, become pregnant, etc.

And they will do all this of their own free will.

In a hard form - everything is the same, but with enormous resistance, drama and tragedy, because they will be “forced” to do it.

Who is particularly affected?

First of all, this applies to those whose natal Sun is influenced by the nearest eclipses. These are people who celebrate their birthday in the following temporary corridors:

  • from May 9 to May 31.
  • from August 14 to September 2.
  • from November 10 to December 1.
  • from February 10 to March 6.

Secondly, this applies to all those who have other planets: the Moon, Venus, Mars, Jupiter in the birth chart fall under the influence of an eclipse, which is revealed when drawing up a personal horoscope.

  • Summarize.
  1. Give up communication that depresses and drags you down. Over time, each of us accumulates disappointments, empty connections, unnecessary acquaintances, outdated or failed plans.
  2. Learn from the past. Analyze your present. Write down everything you want to get rid of and take decisive action!

You are starting a cycle for the next 18 years. What changes there will be depends on your level of development.

  • No sudden movements.

During the “eclipse corridor,” conflict increases, and many take rash steps. What you launch during this period cannot be returned to its original state.

  • The changes are dramatic.

At the moments of eclipses, solar and lunar energies come into conflict and neutralize each other, something like a short circuit occurs, during which the usual flow of energies on Earth changes greatly, which leads to sudden changes and even exacerbations in the psyche and behavior of people and animals, and Serious natural disasters may also occur. Women and children react especially strongly to lunar eclipses; men and adolescents become most vulnerable during solar eclipses. Aggression, increased excitability, restless sleep, fears, hysterics, misunderstandings and misunderstandings may appear.

For the period seven days before and seven days after the eclipse, postpone all important decisions, contracts, weddings, signing agreements, do not make final decisions, do not make large purchases and transactions.

  • Cleanse your mind and space.

Fill your life with positive events. Think about what brings you joy. Make your dream come true. Smile more often. Rejoice. Do not give in to negative impulses - after that you will only regret what was said. Eliminate judgment in your thoughts. Emotions carry powerful energy. Show gratitude more often. Love yourself, life and the world around you will be transformed.

  • Tune in to harmony.

This applies to your feelings, connections with people, and things that surround you. Organize your wardrobe, wash the windows in your house, clean it up, get rid of unnecessary, broken or damaged items. Take care of your health and beauty, give up bad habits, walk in nature more often.

  • Review your social circle.

Colleague-gossip, girlfriend-vampire, friend-underage. It is during this period that you can afford to stop wasting your time and mental strength on such communication. Meet those with whom you feel comfortable and happy to be around.

  • Plan your budget.

Write down how much money you need so you don't have to worry about it. Write real amounts (for example: real income *2 or *3). Think about what actions you can take to strengthen your financial position.

During the “eclipse corridor” period, you cannot risk money, make investments or go on a crazy shopping spree.

You can with clear conscience give yourself a gift that you have long dreamed of.

Show generosity, and you will attract prosperity into your life and increase your wealth.

A solar eclipse is a rare and amazing phenomenon. It happens infrequently, and therefore attracts the attention of not only astronomers, but also ordinary people. Witnessing a total solar eclipse, which occurs at one point on Earth once every 350 years, is amazing. There are even people who travel all over to the globe in pursuit of an interesting spectacle. And next year we will be able to watch this unique event twice!

What is a solar eclipse?

The essence of the phenomenon is that the Moon blocks the light of the Sun for some time. People who observe a solar eclipse from Earth have the impression that the satellite is blocking the star itself. At this moment, the Moon is not visible, but its shadow falls on part of the planet's territory. It is in this region that a solar eclipse is observed.

A solar eclipse is one of the most anticipated planetary phenomena

According to astronomical laws, there are several types of this phenomenon. If at some point on the planet you can see how the solar disk is completely covered by the Moon, then we are talking about a total solar eclipse. In the case when the cone-shaped shadow of the satellite cannot completely obscure the star and crosses the surface of the Earth, the phenomenon is called an annular eclipse. This phenomenon occurs only during the full moon.

Everyone knows that the Moon is close to the Earth, and the Sun is far away. Therefore, although the satellite of our planet is 390 times smaller than the daylight, from Earth they appear the same.

Date and time of solar eclipse in 2017

An annular solar eclipse will occur on February 26, 2017. As it passes between the Sun and the Earth, the Moon will appear smaller in diameter this time, and we will be able to see peculiar “rings” in the sky. Full eclipse expected August 21, 2017. For the first time in the last forty years, residents of America will be able to observe it. This time the phenomenon will be seen mainly in the United States, from South Carolina to Oregon.


In 2017, only those Russians who live on the Chukotka Peninsula or Northeast Russia will be able to see the eclipse

The phenomenon has already been called the Great American Eclipse. According to scientists, more than 200 million people will witness it. Residents of those cities from where this phenomenon will be visible are already beginning to prepare to receive tourists. You can view the eclipse in the following places:

On the territory of Russia, the phenomenon can only be seen on the Chukotka Peninsula and in the North-East of Russia in the following cities:

The best views will be found in the subtropical and mid-latitudes of the northern hemisphere. The width of the Moon's shadow on the surface of our planet will be 115 km, and the phenomenon itself will last 2 minutes 40 seconds. Its peak will be geographical point with coordinates 37° north latitude and 87.7° west longitude.


The mystical influence of eclipses is still discussed

Impact of eclipses on human health

All astronomical phenomena can adversely affect our well-being. The solar eclipse was no exception. An annular eclipse affects people less aggressively than a total eclipse. But the latter has a strong negative impact, especially in the social and career sectors.

On such days, people with cardiovascular diseases need to be extremely careful. Deterioration is also possible peace of mind. Doctors recommend that emotionally unstable people refrain from making serious decisions and starting new things during the days of the solar eclipse. It is better to postpone these plans to a more favorable time.


Muscovites in 2017, just like last year, were unlucky again. Although in There will be two solar eclipses in 2017, but the territory of Russia does not fall within the visibility zone of both eclipses.

Solar eclipse February 26, 2017

The first solar eclipse of 2017 will be annular. It will occur on Sunday, February 26th at 17:54 Moscow time (14:54 UTC) on the February New Moon.
The observation zone of this solar eclipse is located in the Southern Hemisphere of the Earth: the Atlantic Ocean, West Africa and South America.
Russia is not within the visibility range of the September solar eclipse.
The duration of all phases of the eclipse is 5 hours 25 minutes 14 seconds.
The phase of the annular eclipse itself (when the moon's disk is completely inside the solar disk) will last only 44 seconds.

Solar eclipse on August 21, 2017

On Monday, August 21st at 21:26 Moscow time (18:26 UTC) during the August New Moon there will be Total Solar Eclipse.
The observation area for this solar eclipse is all of North and Central America.

The entire territory of Russia was again out of sight of the second solar eclipse this year.
The duration of all phases of the eclipse is 5 hours 17 minutes 32 seconds. The duration of the Total Solar Eclipse phase is 2 minutes 40 seconds.

Great American Eclipse

The Great American Eclipse will occur on August 21, 2017.. The visibility zone of the Total Eclipse of the Sun will pass narrow strip across America from the West to the East coast. The shadow of the Moon covering the Sun, starting its path in the north Pacific Ocean, will fall on the continent in Oregon and, moving at a speed of 2,700 km/h, as if cutting the territory of the states in two, will go into the Atlantic through South Carolina.
The eclipse on August 21 was named "The Great American Eclipse", since it will be the first solar eclipse since the founding of America (1776), the full phase of which can be observed exclusively in the United States. The previous “favorite” total solar eclipse, visible only from this territory, occurred on June 13, 1257. It is characteristic that over the past 37 years (from the Olympics in 1980 to the Great Eclipse of 2017), the lunar shadow during a total eclipse of the Sun did not touch the territory of the continental states.

Russian eclipse of the First World War

Exactly one hundred and three years ago (August 21, 1914) a significant solar eclipse occurred. During the total phase of the eclipse, the shadow of the Moon covered the areas of the western regions from north to south Russian Empire(shown on the map with a blue line). This eclipse is symbolic in that three weeks earlier (August 1, 1914), the German Empire declared war on Russia, and the visibility line of the eclipse on August 21, 1914 passed through the sites of the bloody battles of the First World War on the Russian-German front.
Currently, these lands are no longer part of Russia. With the exception of Crimea, a century after this eclipse, it returned to its “native harbor”.

But this.

The eclipse on April 8, 2024 will put an end to America

The next Total Eclipse of the Sun over America will be observed six and a half years after the Great American Eclipse. This will happen on April 8, 2024. Although the April eclipse will not be exclusively US-based, it attracts attention when paired with. In 2024, the shadow from the lunar disk that obscured the Sun will pass across the United States from the south (Texas) to the northeast of the country along the border with Canada. Thus, Collectively, the shadow of the 2024 eclipse will form a giant cross over all of America.

So, significant because


What will the Moon be like during the American eclipse? The question is absolutely rhetorical, since solar eclipses occur only on the New Moon.

Lunar eclipses 2017

There will be two lunar eclipses in 2017. The February eclipse will be penumbral, and the August eclipse will be partial.

Lunar eclipse on February 11, 2017

On Saturday, February 11th at 3:45 Moscow time (0:45 UTC) during the February Full Moon, a penumbral eclipse of the Moon will occur. In these types of eclipses, the lunar disk is not covered by the Earth's shadow, but only by its penumbra. During a penumbral eclipse, the change in the brightness of the Moon is almost invisible to the naked eye.
This lunar eclipse in its various phases can be observed on almost all continents of the Earth: in Europe and Asia, in Northern and South America, in Africa. The only exceptions will be Australia and Antarctica.

The lunar eclipse will begin at 22:34 02/10/2017 UTC, when the Earth's penumbra touches the edge of the lunar disk.
At 0:45 02/11/2017 UTC the moment of greatest eclipse will occur, when the Moon will be closest to the center of the Earth's shadow. At this time, the Earth's penumbra will almost completely cover the Moon's disk, but the border of the Moon's disk will still not reach the edge of the Earth's shadow.
At 02:53 UTC, the Moon will completely emerge from Earth's penumbra. This will end the eclipse.
Duration of February lunar eclipse 2017 – 4 hours 19 minutes 10 seconds.

Lunar eclipse on August 7, 2017

The second lunar eclipse of 2017 will occur on Monday, August 7 at 21:21 Moscow time (18:21 UTC) during the August Full Moon.
All of Europe, Africa, Asia and Australia fall within the visibility zone of the eclipse. In the Americas, the Moon will be below the horizon throughout the eclipse.
On Far East at sunset of the moon.
The lunar eclipse will begin at 15:50 UTC (penumbral phase of the eclipse).
At 17:23 UTC, the Earth's shadow will begin to cover the surface of the Moon (the stage of a partial lunar eclipse will begin).
At 18:11 UTC the moment of the Full Moon.
At 18:21 UTC the moment of greatest eclipse (the Moon will be closest to the center of the earth's shadow). The moon will be at its zenith at this time for a point in the center of the Indian Ocean
At 19:18 UTC, the Moon will completely emerge from the Earth's shadow (the partial eclipse stage will end). The partial lunar eclipse will last 1 hour 55 minutes.
At 20:51 UTC the penumbral eclipse phase will end, which will last 5 hours 1 minute.

Observation of the lunar eclipse on February 11, 2017 in Moscow

In most of Russia, the February lunar eclipse will be visible from the very beginning to the end. However, it should be noted once again that a penumbral eclipse is practically invisible to the naked eye.
Chronology of the Full Moon on the night of the lunar eclipse in Moscow (Moscow time):

  • 16:53 - Moonrise
  • 00:36 - upper culmination of the Moon
  • 01:34 - beginning of the Penumbral eclipse of the Moon
  • 03:45 - peak of the eclipse
  • 05:53 - end of the lunar eclipse
  • 08:05 - the Moon sets below the horizon.

Observation of the lunar eclipse in Moscow on August 7, 2017

This lunar eclipse can be observed in Moscow late in the evening August 7th at moonrise. The "low" position of the rising full Moon will significantly increase its visual size. The first half of the eclipse will occur at sunset, which will enhance the perception of the “bloodiness” of this August Full Moon.
So, the chronology of the Full Moon in the Moscow sky on the night of August 7-8, 2017:
  • 18:50 – the beginning of the lunar eclipse (penumbral phase), but for Moscow the Moon is still below the horizon
  • 20:10 – Moonrise
  • 20:23 – sunset
  • 20:23 – the earth’s shadow will touch the surface of the Moon (the stage of a partial lunar eclipse will begin)
  • 21:21 – moment of greatest lunar eclipse (coverage of the lunar disk by the Earth's shadow will reach its maximum)
  • 22:18 – the disk of the Moon will completely emerge from the earth’s shadow (completion of the partial eclipse stage)
  • 23:51 – end of the lunar eclipse (the Moon will completely emerge from the Earth’s penumbra)
  • 04:13 – The moon in Moscow will disappear below the horizon
  • 04:48 – Sunrise
