Total lunar eclipse. How do lunar and solar eclipses affect humans?

In 2017 there will be 4 eclipses - 2 lunar and 2 solar. The first pair of eclipses awaits us in February 2017 - on February 11, a penumbral event will occur on the Leo-Aquarius axis moon eclipse, and in about 2 weeks, on February 26, there will be a solar eclipse on the astrological axis Pisces-Virgo. The second pair of eclipses awaits us in the second half of summer - on August 7, 2017, we will witness a lunar eclipse in the constellation Aquarius, and on August 21, the Moon will hide the Sun in the sign of Leo.

Each of these phenomena has its own specifics and sometimes has a completely different impact on a person and his fate. Therefore, below we will tell you more about each of the eclipses.

The penumbral Lunar Eclipse can be observed on February 11, 2017 at 00:34 GMT, and it will occur at 3:45 Moscow time. The eclipse can be admired in the following territories: in Russia - throughout the country (except for the Far East, Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands), Kamchatka and Chukotka; in the world - in North and South America, Africa, Europe and Asia (except the Pacific coast and Japan).

According to astrology and Feng Shui, during eclipses the flow of energy from one or another star is partially or completely blocked. In our case, 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, subconscious, humanity and intuition, then, accordingly, these characteristics will partially suffer. The moon is the personification of a woman - a symbol of calm, kindness, caring and endurance. That is why during this period it is difficult for many to keep emotions to themselves, to remain calm and self-possessed. 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, decide something and carry out major agreements and transactions.

It is during this period that many will awaken to the desire to achieve justice, which will be devoid of all mercy and soul. If you do not restrain such impulses, then you will not achieve anything good. Remember that you need to look for an individual approach to each situation and do not forget to sometimes give free rein to your emotional impulses.

Ring-shaped Solar will occur on February 26, 2017 at 14:59 GMT, and Moscow time at 17:54. The eclipse can be observed in the following areas: in the south of Argentina and Chile, southwest Angola, and also partially in the south South America, Antarctica, western and southern Africa.

But the Sun is a symbol of masculine qualities - the fight for justice, perseverance, intelligence, willpower and assertiveness. Therefore, as you understand, many of us will be subject to a certain melancholy and loss of strength. Our internal forces will fade away, and instead anxiety will come 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 unsettled and not lose our ability to work. Astrologers do not recommend implementing bold decisions; this can lead to irreversible consequences, which will only bring losses and troubles. Therefore, try to avoid sudden changes in life.

But try to implement those good intentions that you may have, 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. Do a good deed, help someone in need - it will give you a charge of good energy and can drive away melancholy.

Lunar eclipse August 7, 2017 of the year will occur at 18:12 GMT, and Moscow time it will occur at 21:20. Residents of all continents except North and South America will be able to admire the lunar eclipse on August 7, 2017.

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 wane a little. Well, don’t 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 succumb to 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 to light. Keeping anything secret at this time is extremely difficult. 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 before the eclipse, when each of you will be calm and cool-headed.

Full Sunny eclipse will happen August 21, 2017 year at 18:26 GMT, and Moscow time at 21:26. The eclipse can be observed in the following territories: a total eclipse only in North America in the United States, and a partial eclipse in Russia - in Chukotka; in other countries - in the USA and Canada, Greenland, Iceland, Ireland and the UK, Portugal, Mexico, Central American countries, Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, Guinea and Brazil.

At this time, you will not be distinguished by realism and practicality, which means you should not make large purchases and serious decisions. If you don't restrain yourself, you can suffer large losses. This Solar Eclipse is a time of rethinking the value system, searching for something new. Dedicate this time for yourself, learn something, think about what you can change in your life, but it’s better to implement your plans after the influence of this phenomenon has passed.

Pay attention to your health, it will be at risk during this period. Possible exacerbation of chronic diseases, decreased immunity and general condition. To avoid this, do not put too much stress on your weak organ systems. Try to take care of yourself.

How to prepare for a lunar and solar eclipse

During any eclipse, a certain confrontation between the Moon and the Sun occurs, which cannot but affect a person. First of all, our health suffers, both physical and spiritual. Therefore, it is worth thinking about how to properly prepare for this event:

Do not overload your gastrointestinal tract, try to eat properly for about three days before the eclipse and three days after. Eliminate fried, fatty and spicy foods, introduce more dairy, vegetables and fruits into your diet.

Do not forget about the correct regime, follow one simple rule - the night is created for sleeping, and the day is for being awake. Don't sit too long at the computer, and reading at night will do more harm than good.

Take care of your state of mind, try all this time to do things that calm you down and charge you with positive emotions.

It is better to postpone all important decisions, or make them earlier (at least three days before the day of the eclipse) or later (respectively, three days after the eclipse).

What you can and cannot do during eclipses

In 2017, we will experience two solar and two lunar eclipses. Solar will occur on February 26 (at 8 degrees Pisces) and August 21 (at 29 degrees Leo). On these days, as well as for three days before and after them, representatives of the signs of Pisces and Leo should be especially careful in their words and actions. Lunar eclipses will occur on February 11 (at 22 degrees Leo) and August 7 (at 15 degrees Aquarius). As you can see, Leo will become the “abode” for the eclipses of both luminaries, but we focus the attention of Aquarius only on the August one.

Eclipses enhance the slightest negative and positive vibrations of the day - the events that happen to you on the day of the eclipse will haunt you until the return of the same eclipse, that is, for a full cycle of 18.5 years. Therefore, we suggest that you familiarize yourself with the key rules of behavior on the days of eclipses and adhere to them.

On days of eclipses it is impossible:

Start new things; get angry, irritated, start conflicts;

Carry out any medical interventions.

On eclipse days you can:

Parting with the past (throwing away old things, going on a diet aimed at losing weight, getting rid of bad habits);

Cleanse the body (fast, do fasting days, cleanse yourself of toxins) and the home (do general cleaning, fumigate the house with incense, walk around with candles or holy water);

Dream and visualize what you want (it is very important to present the most detailed pictures of what you want, as if it had already happened - the eclipse will give the desire a strong impetus to action).

Note that eclipses in February 2017 may be accompanied by pleasant unexpected events. Amazing opportunities will open up for many these days - you should trust what is happening: very soon this will be followed by changes for the better!

But with the August pair of eclipses, not everything is so positive. They risk revealing our fatigue and increasing health problems. If possible, plan your vacation for August.

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 in the coming year we will be able to see 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 only occurs 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 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. A total eclipse is expected on 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 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:

Most best view will open in 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. A deterioration in mental balance is also possible. 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.

Here is the eclipse calendar for 2018-2022. For each year there is a separate table, which indicates the date, Moscow time, type of solar or lunar eclipse, degree and zodiac sign in which the eclipse will take place, as well as the regions where this phenomenon can be observed.

Eclipses aren't that bad rare phenomena, they happen every year. Solar eclipse occurs during a new moon, when the Moon comes between the Sun and the Earth, partially or completely blocking the sunlight.

Moon eclipse occurs during a full moon, when the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon and the Earth casts a shadow on the Moon.

Impact of eclipses

Solar eclipses have a greater impact on physical health, while lunar eclipses have a greater impact on emotions and mental state.

For sensitive people, emotionally unstable people, as well as those with cardiovascular diseases, it is recommended to reduce business activity and get more rest.

Also, eclipses have a greater impact on those people in whose horoscopes important points are affected by the eclipse.

So in Khabarovsk and Vladivostok the culmination of the eclipse took place at 23:30, the beginning of the partial eclipse at 21:48, and the beginning total eclipse- at 22:50.

Total lunar eclipse on January 21, 2019. Visibility on the territory of the former USSR **

This eclipse is the only total lunar eclipse in 2019. It is noteworthy that it occurs during the so-called. supermoon - when the full (or new) Moon in its elliptical motion around the Earth is at its closest point. In addition, the “supermoon” became “bloody” during the eclipse - when passing through the Earth’s penumbra, the lunar disk acquired a brownish tint. In Europe, it is still very difficult to observe the eclipse, since the Moon was located low above the horizon, and the further east it was, the lower it was.
