The influence of an eclipse on a person. Lunar and solar eclipses: impact on humans

When one door closes, another always opens.

This life law is very suitable for understanding Lunar and Solar Eclipses.

Lunar eclipse - some door (program) is closing in our lives. Sunny - a new door opens (a new program is issued).

How to understand - what impact will a solar or lunar eclipse have on you personally?? As always, we will try to deal with this difficult issue using simple and understandable methods.

To begin with, you need to understand yourself nature Eclipses.

Solar eclipse - occurs on the New Moon. Those. a bookmark is taking place new programs, since the New Moon is start of cycle. The solar eclipse broadcasts very powerful energy impulse, because unlike the usual New Moon (the program of which is designed for 1 lunar month) - the influence of the New Moon-Eclipse will be last much longer(at least until the next Solar Eclipse, and sometimes longer). Solar Eclipse Keyword - new experience. New, because on the New Moon the Moon is not visible in the sky, i.e. information field closed, there is nothing to rely on, and we just have to develop some new knowledge and experience.

Lunar Eclipse - occurs on the Full Moon. Those. on the contrary, the end of some cycle comes, everything secret becomes clear, the Moon is visible in the sky - so we can see the results and understand the meaning of the events that took place. Our information field is replenished, we draw conclusions, and complete a certain topic in our life.

So it turns out Solar Eclipses bring something new to our lives, the unknown, in which we may not even have experience yet. Some kind of program is activated, according to which our development, our life, is adjusted.

A Lunar Eclipses are a time to take stock, a time when some circumstances, people, projects and situations may leave your life, i.e. the denouement of events comes and a certain stage ends.

Important point! Always works during eclipses axis Zodiac signs in which the Eclipse occurs, i.e. Signs where the Sun and Moon stand during an Eclipse. For Solar Eclipses, this is the Sign where the point of connection of the Sun-Moon is located and the Sign opposite, and for Lunar Eclipses it is the Sign in which the Moon stands and the Sign opposite in which the Sun stands.

The influence of Eclipses for some people is stronger, for others it may not be very noticeable at all, and this depends on what exactly, what topic, what sphere of life is affected by the Eclipse in the horoscope of a particular person.

But even if you don’t know your natal chart (horoscope), you can understand the impact of any Eclipse on you by date Eclipses. Solar and Lunar Eclipses, first of all, always have a very strong influence on people whose birthday falls on the date of the Eclipse (+/- 3 days).

And also, representatives of those Zodiac Signs that belong to the Zodiac feel a strong influence cross Signs Affected by the Eclipse. So, if an eclipse occurs in Aries, Capricorn, Cancer or Libra, all four Signs will feel it, since they all belong to the cardinal cross. For example, an eclipse in Aries will be felt most strongly by Aries and Libra (the sign opposite), but Cancers and Capricorns will not remain on the sidelines either, since in these Signs there will be a resonance with the point/axis of the Eclipse along the aspect of 90 degrees (square).

In the same way, an Eclipse in Taurus, Scorpio, Leo or Aquarius will affect all these four fixed Signs, but the Eclipse will be felt most strongly by the Signs on whose axis the Eclipse will occur (Taurus-Scorpio axis or Leo-Aquarius axis).

And the same will happen during an Eclipse in the Signs of the mutable cross - Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, Pisces. The strongest influence will be felt by the Signs affected by the Eclipse axis, and a slightly less strong influence by the Signs perpendicular to the axis (crosses are called crosses, because 4 Signs form two perpendicular axes).

But even if you do not belong to the Solar Sign (axis, cross) in which the Eclipse occurs, this does not mean at all that it will be unnoticeable for you. Here a lot depends on what Houses of your horoscope will affect the axis of the Eclipse. If you know your natal chart, or at least your time of birth, then you can go one step further and see what specific life theme the Solar or Lunar Eclipse is activating.

Now let’s figure out how to find these same influences in our own lives. .

Sun– this is our spirit, consciousness, willpower, volitional actions, creative energy. Symbolizes a father, a husband for a woman, the man himself, his vital energy.

Moon is responsible for intuition, subconsciousness, premonition, unconscious behavior, symbolizes the mother, maternal instincts, fertility, everyday life, family, a wife for a man, real estate.

The period of eclipses is extremely unfavorable for any actions and undertakings. But if actions are connected with a person’s spiritual life, with serving God, then the time of the eclipse can and should be used for spiritual practice. You can and even need to read prayers or listen to church music and religious chants.

At the moment when the sun's rays are suddenly interrupted, darkness falls on the Earth, both literally and in the sense that “absolute evil” comes into its own. At this moment, people, animals and all living things experience extreme suffering, consciousness and logic do not work, the brain itself seems to be experiencing an eclipse. Wrong decisions are made, intuition is not activated and does not help in difficult situations. Any events are perceived as life-threatening.

On the day of the eclipse itself, you should read prayers (any kind you know), mantras, books on spiritual development, meditate, be in the water (take a bath, swim in the sea, river), and fumigate the room you are in (stock up on chopsticks in advance) . It is not recommended to look at the eclipse itself. It is advisable to be indoors at the time of the eclipse. If you are on a trip, then at the very moment of the eclipse of the Sun or Moon (find out the time of the eclipse in your area in advance), go indoors, or park the car, sit for 5-10 minutes, stop thinking, mentally forgive those who offended you, mentally ask forgiveness from those you feel guilty about. It is not recommended to eat food 3 hours before and after the eclipse. Do not make transactions, postpone all financial issues until the next day, it is also advisable not to make important purchases. It is prohibited to perform any operations on the body on the day of eclipses. Avoid places with large crowds of people. You can start to “quit” smoking and work with bad habits.

Eclipse

The influence of an eclipse on a person begins to appear 2 weeks before the exact moment of the eclipse and 2 weeks after it. This is especially felt by older people; illnesses worsen; poor health forces them to limit their activity and be more attentive to their diet. Meteorologically dependent people are especially affected.

Pregnant women are not allowed to go out during solar or lunar eclipses, this is fraught with the appearance of pathologies in the fetus. The moon is a luminary that is very close to us. The Sun gives energy (masculine) and the Moon absorbs (feminine). When two luminaries are at the same point during an eclipse, their energies have a strong impact on a person. The body is under a powerful load on the regulatory system. Health is especially bad on the day of the eclipse for people with cardiovascular pathologies and hypertension. People who are currently undergoing treatment will also feel unwell.

Even doctors advise that on the day of an eclipse it is better not to engage in activity - actions will be inadequate and there is a greater likelihood of mistakes. They advise you to sit this day out. To avoid health discomfort, it is recommended to take a contrast shower on this day (which, by the way, would be good to take not only on the days of a solar eclipse, but regularly, every day). In the morning, dousing should be completed with cool water, it tones, and in the evening - with warm water.

In 1954, the French economist Maurice Allais, observing the movements of a pendulum, noticed that during a solar eclipse it began to move faster than usual. This phenomenon was called the Allais effect, but they could not systematize it. Today, new research by the Dutch scientist Chris Duif confirms this phenomenon, but cannot yet explain it. Astrophysicist Nikolai Kozyrev found out that eclipses affect people. He says that during eclipses time is transformed.

The effects of an eclipse in the form of a powerful earthquake or other natural disaster are very possible during the week before or after any eclipse. There may also be economic instability for several weeks following the eclipse. In any case, eclipses bring changes in society.

During a lunar eclipse, the mind, thinking and emotional sphere of people are very vulnerable. The number of mental disorders in people is increasing. This is due to a disruption of the hypothalamus at the psychophysiological level, which corresponds to the Moon according to the discovery of Tony Nader. The body's hormonal cycles may be disrupted, especially in women. During a solar eclipse, the risk of cardiovascular diseases increases more, as the Sun rules the heart. The perception of “I”, of pure consciousness, is clouded. The consequence of this may be increased tension, radical and aggressive tendencies in the world, as well as the unsatisfied ego of politicians or state leaders.

When times get tough, the best we can do is turn to the Absolute. During eclipses, it is better to think about peace and tranquility in your family. Rest is the best recommendation during lunar and solar eclipses.

Eclipses usually have a strong negative effect on geographic regions that are ruled by the sign in which the eclipse occurs; in places where they are visible; in areas ruled by the zodiac sign in which the eclipse occurs (for example, Capricorn - rules mountainous areas, you should not travel to the mountains).

Research on eclipses shows that the likelihood of various types of disasters increases during the “eclipse influence phase.” In the next few weeks, events such as intensifying war, fires, airport disasters or unusual weather events are likely. One of the world leaders may get into a scandal or tragedy; powerful rulers may be blinded by anger, envy and therefore there may be illogical or stupid decisions made by world leaders.

During this period, people clearly display secretive, immoral behavior and cunning. Therefore, the governments of the world must be hypervigilant in matters of terrorist organizations and subversive activities. Political leaders must enhance their security and remain cool and calm when making critical decisions. Smugglers and terrorists often strike during the 2 weeks before and 2 weeks after the eclipse. Riots or major food poisoning are possible. Seismic activity cannot be ruled out. For governments and intelligence agencies, the most important thing is vigilance.

Lunar and solar eclipses

You can easily find the exact dates of lunar and solar eclipses in any online lunar calendar. It should be understood that a lunar eclipse always occurs on a full moon, and a solar eclipse on a new moon.

Astrologer Pavel Globa about eclipses

The role and function of eclipses is very serious. They realize the karma that we have somehow accumulated and realize it in the shortest possible time.

Eclipses always reveal our problems and allow them to be realized in the shortest possible time. They sharply compress our problems and quickly expose them. Eclipses are a cleansing, they have a medical function, cleansing, surgical, but they can also be scary, not everyone can withstand them. This is a surgical intervention in our destiny, which is caused by ourselves.

If something bad happens to us during an eclipse, it means it’s good that this happened and not something else.

Eclipses and magic

Question: Solar and lunar eclipses are endowed with many mystical and religious qualities. What is the significance of eclipses in magical rituals and ceremonies? Perhaps this is a good time for some magical actions and a very unfortunate one, for example, for the moment of the birth of children. We are so illiterate in these matters.

Answer: First of all, you should remember that during solar eclipses you must be careful: do not start any important business on this day, refrain from long trips or postpone them to another time. In general, since ancient times, the time of a solar eclipse in many countries was considered a very dangerous time: for example, in Ancient China and Babylon, this astronomical event was always a harbinger of trouble, some tragic but important changes. It is no coincidence that immediately after all the animals climbed onto Noah's Ark, a solar eclipse occurred - this was a harbinger of the end of the old world.

People in ancient times always tried to explain a solar eclipse either by a struggle for the power of higher powers, or by the actions of unclean and powerful spirits or monsters. In any case, they believed that this event did not bode well for ordinary people.

Indeed, eclipses do not have a very favorable effect not only on people, but also on technology, however, there is no need to panic. If you follow all the necessary precautions, then nothing bad will happen to you.

Even in ancient times, healers and sorcerers called this phenomenon not an eclipse, but a “black” sun. The time of the eclipse and the next six hours after it is the best time to work with Voodoo spells.

And remember, on this day you must completely abstain from food: drink only clean, spring water.

Q: Question about the eclipse corridor. Almost everywhere it is said that now it is better not to make life-changing decisions, be careful with finances, new contacts, pay attention to your own outbursts of emotions, be careful when traveling, etc. Many conflicts and disputes can arise from long-ripening seeds. That reactions to these conflicts will lay the foundation for developments in the coming year, at least. And for some, eclipses will be the decisive developments of almost the last 18 years and will shape their future for the same amount. What can you say about this?

A: As usual, astrologers love to stir things up. Yes, a period of development is coming. Yes, better to be careful. Yes, purges, conflicts and other cockroaches... But it has always been and will be like this, it’s just that now is another peak of events and new energies, but for everyone it is subjective. The more a person listens to himself, the less he needs to pay attention to matrix settings, incl. and eclipses. There is an analogy with being overweight: most people go on a diet before summer and immediately start running to the gym to lose weight before the beach season. And some simply keep their body in shape all year round, without waiting for it to blur. It’s the same here: eclipses set a rhythm, draw the attention of the masses to certain things, especially if they were actively ignored, but they are not a guarantee that points of emotional fixation will be discharged strictly according to a given scenario plan.

If you live out of trust and FEELING of yourself and your world, and do not blindly obey other people’s rules in anticipation of seasonal work, then the matrix will only have an indirect influence on you. Already . You can diligently do your homework every day, or you can copy from your neighbor right before the upcoming class, in a hurry and on your knees before the bell rings.

Eclipse periods are an energetically favorable time to draw conclusions and make changes to your source code. Key points will be focused on, but you shouldn’t get too attached to them, especially if it’s for reasons of fashion or superstition. Such bindings are fraught with the fact that you allow into your field the influence of external settings that are obviously beyond your control, although outwardly they are quite logical.

The illusion of a gear in a giant clockwork is created, which either does not solve anything, or must pay attention to thousands of different coordinates ( planetary conjunctions, cycles, precessions, squares, eclipses), in order to somehow calculate the movement of the arrows and adjust to the flow. This is very similar to how financial markets work: millions of bankers, traders and analysts study the news day and night, build charts, mathematical models, algorithms, but still cannot correctly predict the price movement, although there are only two options - up or down. Even monkeys show better results than investment funds, which means that, by and large, there is no pattern; any model can be broken in a second with one tweet and bring down the market. The system is either too multivariate for calculations, which means there is no point in them, or it is completely illusory, like our entire holographic reality.

Moreover, as practice shows, the more you feed the egregor, the more you get from it. It works this way everywhere, without exception - from law, finance and sports, to numerology, religion, politics and astrology. This means that the greater your faith in the stars, the greater their influence on you.

This is the hidden essence of all matrix systems - to tie them to a general scenario, to make you think that everyone has always been and will be a prisoner of circumstances, of some divine or universal plan that can be calculated in advance, which means you have no use for intuition. This is one of the many reasons why people began to lose their abilities - it was easier for them to shift responsibility for their lives to gods, presidents, stars, numbers, graphs, artificial intelligence... They began to forget that abilities come with responsibility, and since you don’t want to accept the latter, then you don’t need the first ones either.

This does not mean that calculation systems do not work, by no means, but excessive attention to them kills the essence of the Creator in a person, extinguishes his Spark, makes him skeletal, dependent, sets limits, makes it impossible to allow other options, to CREATE reality. For young souls, this is an excellent option for a learning sandbox, but for mature souls, it is overwhelming and does not allow them to move further along their path. You can drive strictly according to the map, or you can make your own way, only occasionally checking the coordinates, compass, and stars. It all depends on the circumstances, needs and personal choice, but balance is needed throughout.

Now more and more people see how the power of intention is increasing and reality is changing, it is becoming softer, more flexible, the old rules are no longer so rigid, which means the coordinate systems are expanding. And in this expansion, it is important to maintain that same balance between general guidelines and one’s own goals, logic and intuition, spirit and matter.

When all the karmic tasks and events that can be calculated from the natal chart are worked out by you, the new freedom of creativity will remind you that the world is a playground, and the actor and screenwriter in it is ONLY YOU.

Astrologers claim that since the eclipse will be lunar, and the Moon is responsible for the human soul, our emotional sphere will be under attack: we will feel discomfort and confusion when you feel that you need to do something, but don’t know what exactly, and from you suffer from this.

This eclipse will occur at 23.21 Moscow time (maximum phase) and will be observed in most of Europe (including Russia), Asia, Australia, Africa, South America, and Antarctica.

This will be the longest lunar eclipse of the 21st century, lasting 103 minutes: from 19:30 to 21:13 UTC (Greenwich Mean Time).

The peculiarity of this eclipse is manifested in a bright tau square formed by the conjunctions of the Sun, White Moon, Ascending Node (in Leo), Moon, Black Moon, Mars and Descending Lunar Node (in Aquarius), and Uranus.

The configuration is very destructive, destabilizing and fraught with unpredictable events. Extreme situations of a social nature are likely.

The main changes will concern partnership and marital relationships, personal and family problems, attitudes towards the homeland and national traditions.

The tau square itself with its apex on Uranus warns of serious social upheavals, increased activity of the public masses more than usual, possible natural disasters and emergencies at nuclear facilities.

The Uranus - Mars square speaks of possible terrorist attacks and the activation of extremist organizations. The risk of radioactive contamination of the environment and chemical poisoning of people increases.

The conjunction of the Moon and Mars makes it impossible to restrain emotional intensity, and, as a consequence, situations of an unpredictable nature with an outburst of aggression, hatred and intolerance. The presence of the Black Moon in the same position gives unmotivated aggression, a desire for violence and the destruction of one’s own kind.

Manifestation according to this position is completely determined by karma and is a karmic debt or retribution.

This will be opposed by the connection of the White Moon and the Sun with the Ascending Node - the center of the spiritualized creative transformation of the world and ourselves. We will rely on our traditions and the best national character traits.

Extreme situations will require us to refract our abilities - in the fullest possible way and to demonstrate such exceptional qualities as self-sacrifice, the desire for justice and the ability to help those in need.

Any manifestations of violence, evil and injustice will be met with a worthy rebuff, which will result in social events on a large scale!

Yes, consensus between the warring parties is possible, but it is rather apparent - Chiron, which provides a harmonious release to the main opposition of the eclipse, is in Aries, so consensus will be achieved in battle order (with a fist to the nose or a knife to the ribs).

The second important configuration of the sky - the Trapezoid with the participation of Neptune, Pluto, the conjunction of Proserpina and Jupiter and Venus - is an opportunity to find compelling arguments for a smoother overcoming of what we will get in an eclipse situation.

Spiritual experience and a deep vision of the true roots of what is happening, strong-willed decisions, ambitions and a pragmatic approach will solve many acute situations, but not the main one. This is only a favorable background for our intellectual and spiritual self-realization, which extreme situations will require.

Perhaps someone will be able to solve their pressing professional problems, replenish their wallet, or launch a bold project. But Mars in conjunction with the Descending Node will slow down our initiatives, which will add even more intensity to passions and strength to our impatience.

Internationally, active terrorist actions are likely, which, however, will not lead to the unification of the forces opposing them. Revolutionary upheavals are possible, especially in those countries where there is destabilization of the intrasocial atmosphere.

The period of the eclipse - the week before it and the week after it - is also an unlucky period for aviation, astronautics and aeronautics in general. During air travel, vehicles may be hijacked or accidents may occur due to a failure of power systems or due to human factor.

In industries where explosives or hazardous substances are used, fires, fires and explosions are likely, followed by chemical contamination of the environment and people.

In the financial sector, scandals, acts of expropriation, and robbery are likely.

We will need personal safety measures - in public places, on transport, during flights (which are best avoided), in production - when working with electrical equipment, computer equipment and chemicals.

The risk of accidents increases, so safety rules must be strictly followed both at home and at work.

In terms of health, you need to pay attention to your well-being, the state of your heart and hormonal system, which will be especially vulnerable during this period. During this time, it is best to avoid exposure to radiation and delay radiation therapy because there may be an unplanned increase in radiation exposure.

For those who are lucky enough to have a rest at this time, it is better to avoid excessive exposure to the sun. Sunbathe only in the early morning and evening hours. Excessive solar energy can negatively affect the thyroid gland.

The eclipse will have the greatest impact on representatives of the signs: Taurus, Leo and Aquarius. Scorpios will have a little more luck, since there are harmonizing aspects. It will not be easy for Capricorns and Aries; they will lose the square of Chiron and Saturn, which will lead to breaks in many existing relationships.

General recommendations: try to control your emotions and aggression, release excess energy in constructive decisions and actions, do not forget about safety precautions and personal safety measures, and take care of your health - especially the heart, hormonal system and thyroid gland.

Try to show patience, mutual understanding with people, share your experiences and don’t cut from the shoulder! It will not be possible to recreate what was destroyed during this period! Therefore, let's preserve what is still dear to our hearts.

Today, March 20th, is the day of the solar eclipse. From an astrological point of view, a solar eclipse is a new moon that occurs near the lunar nodes. The sun and moon find themselves in the same plane, and the moon covers the sun with its disk. At this moment, the mind is “eclipsed” by emotions, and the dark entities of the collective unconscious come out. On the days of eclipses, it is not recommended to drive, fly by plane, or participate in potentially dangerous activities. Equipment may malfunction, electronics may fail, electricity may go out. On the days of eclipses you should not start anything. Damage and harm will be observed in the house of the natal chart where the eclipse occurs.

Among the signs of the Zodiac, the influence of the eclipse will be especially felt by late Pisces (March 18-20), early Aries (March 21-23), late Virgo (September 19-22), early Libra (September 23-25), late Gemini (19-25). June 21), early Cancer (June 22-23), late Sagittarius (December 19-21), early Capricorn (December 22-23). It is easy for people born during these periods to become involved in some unpleasant incidents and even disasters. All other signs should also exercise caution and prudence on March 20.

Impact of a solar eclipse

We can say that, in general, solar eclipses have a negative impact on nature, people, and especially on their psyche and health. Even animals become fearful during a solar eclipse. By the way, the influence of a solar eclipse is felt a week or more before it and continues for a week or more after. The impact of a solar eclipse is felt most strongly in countries where it can be seen.

People's health

From a health point of view, this is not the best time - chronic diseases are getting worse and existing ones are getting worse. Diseases of the heart and circulatory system are possible, since the Sun is the leading planet of the sign of Leo, and Leo in the human body is “responsible” for the heart and circulatory system. During this period, it is necessary to lead a calm lifestyle, not to overwork, it is undesirable to drink alcohol and abuse sports. Particular attention should be paid to problem areas.

Human psyche

As for the mental state, we can say that the solar eclipse does not affect balanced people. However, one should take into account the fact that they may also meet less balanced people.

Therefore, during this period, special activity is not recommended for anyone, as people become inattentive and hot-tempered. This is due to the fact that the general condition of people becomes unstable.

It must be remembered that this period is very strong energetically. If we achieve anything during this time, the consequences will be felt for a long time. Therefore, before you take on anything, you should weigh everything carefully. If a person has a positive horoscope and wants to do something good, then you can take a risk, but in general it is better to refrain from starting new projects, the astrologer advises.

If a solar eclipse occurs in the morning, then you can still start something during the day, and if a solar eclipse is observed in the afternoon, then it is better to refrain from making important decisions and carrying out business. Solar eclipses are always associated with certain excitement. For example, in 1999, many sects became active and promised another end of the world on the day of a solar eclipse. During this period, many mass suicides occurred, and some people hid in dugouts to survive natural disasters.

Definitely, for people with an unstable nervous system, this period is dangerous, because emotions take precedence over reason.

Nature

An eclipse of the Sun can have a devastating impact on nature - drought, storms, hurricanes, floods, earthquakes and other disasters. So, in 2003, an eclipse of the Sun took place in the sign of Gemini (the Sun and also Saturn were in this sign), this had a great impact on plane crashes.

Since ancient times, it was believed that a solar or lunar eclipse was a sign from above, foreshadowing all sorts of troubles. Therefore, court astrologers had to predict eclipses in advance and interpret what could be expected after them in terms of state security, the economy and the life of the ruler.

It is believed that a person born on the day of an eclipse becomes hostage to the so-called Saros cycle, that is, similar events occur to him once every 18 years and 10 days.

During a lunar eclipse, people's psyche suffers. The number of suicides and mental disorders is increasing. A feeling of unmotivated anxiety, vague anxiety and even panic “covers” even those who are not subject to such sensations in ordinary life. Intuition, the gift of the Moon, stops working during an eclipse; it seems to be blocked.

How do lunar and solar eclipses affect nature?

Nature also reacts to eclipses - earthquakes and other natural disasters are possible a week before and a week after. The activity of the World Ocean increases - it is during eclipses that more storms and tsunamis occur.

The greatest negative impact of a solar eclipse comes from those regions where it can be observed. In such regions, not only natural disasters occur, but also economic collapses, the collapse of the national currency, the strengthening of extremist tendencies, plane crashes and serious car accidents.

Negativity also manifests itself in those geographical points that coincide in sign with the sign under which the eclipse occurs (read more about the Moon in the zodiac signs in our material). For example, if during an eclipse the Sun is in Pisces, then it is better not to appear near a body of water, and if it is in Capricorn, then you should not go to the mountains.

During the days and nights of eclipses, it is especially recommended to engage in spiritual self-improvement, read prayers, meditate, and chant mantras. But you shouldn’t be in places with large crowds of people. Even someone’s completely innocent joke can provoke panic and its consequences. Also, you should not conduct transactions or make large purchases; Surgical intervention in the body is completely contraindicated - again due to its unpredictable consequences.

In light of all of the above, it is better to track the time of the next lunar or solar eclipse in order to be prepared for unpleasant surprises.

Upcoming eclipses and how to watch eclipses

The upcoming solar eclipses, which will have a special impact on our country and its inhabitants, can be observed in the Northern Hemisphere:

Be careful these days, you can even stock up on amulets to make you feel calmer...

By the way, the “fatal” total solar eclipse on November 13, 2012 will not be visible in our country.

A lunar eclipse can be observed without harm to health, but a solar eclipse can cause eye damage. Even in the Novgorod chronicle of the 13th century, we find mention of the fact that “from this sign hardly anyone lost sight of a person.” Therefore, it is recommended to view the eclipse through heavily smoked glass; ordinary sunglasses are not suitable. You can also use several multi-colored glasses, combining them into one, or a photographic negative film that has no light areas. Moreover, a partial eclipse can cause damage to vision no less than a total eclipse.

You cannot look at the eclipse through binoculars, through the viewfinder of a video camera or camera, and even more so through the eye of a telescope. Loss of vision may be permanent. Now, in addition to the eye protection already listed, industrial filters have appeared that allow you to safely admire a rare phenomenon. Well, you can gain health and understand what you should pay attention to before the eclipse if you read our health horoscope.
