Question by Sarahs_Imagination.: Solar Eclipse on July22nd, a bad omen?
I don't know if anyone heard but, the news media is freaking out about a solar eclipse thats expected to happen this Wednesday on July 22nd. Apparently earths moon will stand between the earth and the sun and as a result, completely blocking the sun out. A lot of people with spiritual and religious backgrounds are saying that its a bad omen that will bring violence and turmoil across the world.
What do you think about this? I think it's just a natural event and I'm not really worried about the earth in general but, how people will react and sometimes people can get out of control with paranoia and thats what makes something like this dangerous.
Heres some sites I found the news on :

What I found to be interesting is India's spiritual point of view on the solar eclipse. In Hindu mythology there are two demons that make food and water toxic during the eclipse. I searched the internet and came upon something that could support this mythology as a fact. "The Great Blob of Alaska" there is a repot of a great black blob of black toxic algae floating from Alaska and closer towards the United States. Right now commercial fishermen are not allowed to fish near the algae because this particular type of algae is very toxic and kills crustaceans and fish. This could be an early sign of what is yet to come or it could just be an effect of global warming.
Heres the site info on the algae found in Alaska: http://www.time.com/time/nation/article/…

why would this solar eclipse be any different over the other solar eclipses that have happened over billions of years? In the Hindu spiritual point of view, this particular eclipse may cause turmoil and chaos on earth. I am not very familiar with the Hindu spiritual point of view on the solar eclipse but, I have found evidence that some of the mythology could be fact. To support my opinion that the mythology could be fact I bring up the article found on cnn.com about the black toxic algae found in Alaska that i killing fish and crustaceans therefore, making food not edible. This blob of black toxic algae is moving closer to other bordering states and will continue to cause fish and crustaceans to be not edible. Within a matter of 2 days which lands on the exact day of the solar eclipse, this blob of algae will have already spread across the bordering states and if anyone attempted to eat fish or crustaceans from the area that the toxic algae contaminated, those people would become ill

There are supposed to be three major eclipses coming I believe in 2012. They say?
Question by Star: There are supposed to be three major eclipses coming I believe in 2012. They say?
these eclipses will somehow effect our weather, and that we will see dramatic changes. Last night I watched the movie "2012". Does anyone know exactly what is going to take place, and what could possibly happen as a result of these three eclipses?
Best answer:
Answer by Tundra RobEclipse events in 2012:
May 20: Anular Solar Eclipse
June 4: Partial Lunar Eclipse
November 13: Total Solar Eclipse
November 28: Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
Eclipses have absolutely no effect on the weather. They only last for a few minutes, which is an insignificant amount of time to affect the Earth's weather.
The movie 2012 is a completely fictional story, the events depicted in it are not possible, and will not happen.

The Signs of Israel's Rebirth Lesson 1: The Parable of the Fig Tree Concluding Statement: Now it should also be perfectly clear what the parable of the fig tree in the Olivet Discourse means (Matt 24:32-34). As the disciples were walking into the city on Tuesday morning after Palm Sunday, they noticed that the tree which Jesus had cursed the day before had withered and dried up. Later, on Tuesday evening, when the memory of the withered fig tree was still fresh in their minds, Jesus spoke the parable in question. He said that when the church sees the fig tree leafing out again, it will know that "it is . . . at the doors." The Greek for "it is" can also be translated "he is." In prophecy, "door" is often a symbol for the passageway between heaven and earth (Rev. 4:1). What the parable means, therefore, is that when the nation of Israel revives after its coming disintegration and death in AD 70, the return of Christ will be imminent. www.themoorings.org Prophecy in the News - 2008-2015 video.google.com Are we in the end of days? - www.zimbio.com June 7th 1967 Jerusalem was restored to Israel and began to be built up in troublous times! 49 prophetic years x 360 days = 17640 days.

Which solar eclipse could be seen from cleveland ohio in the 1970's?
Question by starbrite74♥♥: Which solar eclipse could be seen from cleveland ohio in the 1970's?
I was a little girl and only remember walking outside in the afternoon to see part of the eclipse which lasted for only a few minutes. Does anyone know which eclipse it could be? Somewhere between 1973 and 1979? I would love to learn more about it now that I'm an adult.
Thanks to anyone who answers honestly.
Wow! Thank you so much! I didn't expect such a complete answer so quickly! :-)

Answer by lavalamp3773There were two eclipses between those years which would have been viewable from Cleveland, one in December 1974 and one in February 1979.
The one in '74 was a partial solar eclipse, and would not have passed directly overhead Cleveland, it is likely that from there only a small part of the sun would have been covered, perhaps not even enough to notice.
The one in '79 was a total solar eclipse, and again it did not pass directly overhead Cleveland, so only part of the sun would have been covered up, but it would have been a greater part.
Also, there was a total solar eclipse in March 1970 that passed quite close by, in Cleveland a large proportion of the sun would be covered up, that would be very noticeable. Here is the route for that:

And here is the December '74:
