Question by Dan in Miami: How many solar ecliples in Miami since 1960?
I'm talking total eclipse or near total solar, visible from Miami, not Mexico or Canada, MIAMI, since 1960?


Best answer:
Answer by imdashtiMiami witnessed 21 solar eclipses since 1960, all of which were seen as partial eclipses. The greatest eclipse was around noon of 7 March 1970 when the eclipse observed was at 83%. In fact, the total eclipse was so close it was seen in Florida in places such as Lake City, Live Oak and Perry. Here's a list of all 21 elipses witnessed in Miami since 1960 along with percentage of eclipse observed:

1. At sunrise of 31 July 1962 (11%)
2. Afternoon of 20 July 1963 (38%)
3. Early morning of 12 November 1966 (2%)
4. Afternoon of 11 September 1969 (9%)
5. Around noon of 7 March 1970 (83%)
6. Afternoon of 10 July 1972 (29%)
7. At sunrise of 30 June 1973 (less than 1%)
8. Early morning of 24 December 1973 (39%)
9. Morning of 13 December 1974 (25%)
10. Afternoon of 12 October 1977 (32%)
11. Around noon of 26 Febuary 1979 (32%)
12. Afternoon of 10 August 1980 (1%)
13. Around noon of 30 May 1984 (66%)
14. Afternoon of 3 October 1986 (31%)
15. Afternoon of 11 July 1991 (43%)
16. Around noon of 10 May 1994 (40%)
17. Early afternoon of 29 April 1995 (5%)
18. Around noon of 26 February 1998 (39%)
19. Around noon of 25 December 2000 (20%)
20. Close to sunset of 14 December 2001 (53%)
21. Afternoon of 8 April 2005 (35%)

The last total eclipse seen in Miami was close to sunset of 21 February 1803, but since then four eclipses came close to total eclipse in December 1825 (97%), April 1846 (91%), July 1878 (93%) and June 1918 (95%). The next total eclipse in Miami will be in August 2045. Until then, Miami will see 11 partial eclipses, the greatest of which will be in January 2038 at 81%. Within the next decade, the city will witness three partial solar eclipse at sunrise of 3 Novemebr 2013 (34%), close to sunset of 23 October 2014 (5%) and in early afternoon of 21 August 2017 (78%).

Around what time is the next solar eclipse going to occur?


Question by Ashley: Around what time is the next solar eclipse going to occur?
I know that today, May 20th, a solar eclipse is going to occur. I looked up the time that the solar eclipse would occur around and it said 23:53:54 UT (universal time). Where I live we go by EST (eastern standard time). I was curious to know what 23:53:54 UT equals to in EST because I would like to witness it. Help please!

Answer by Robert DDepends on where you are on the planet's surface. Any solar eclipse is only visible in a thin band anyway.

The Sun and Moon come together to form not only a New Moon but a solar eclipse, the last in your relationship sector until 2019. In the heart of some very powerful relationship forces this gives you a chance to make a commitment to the future and to the path that you want things to take from this point on.

What is the believed time when spirit activity is at its highest?


Question by goo_head_83: What is the believed time when spirit activity is at its highest?
I have heard conflicting arguments between midnight and 3am being the time when spirit activity is highest. What is the leading belief of when activity is at its highest? Why is it at its highest at this time and no other time? What evidence has been collected to prove this is the peak time?


Best answer:
Answer by El Nahual JusticieroSome spirits are more comfortable to make themselves present at night time, and others only come if you summon them properly, but spirits seem to be more active on Halloween, Walpurgis Night (April 30), and in the Equinox and Solstice days, this year the next Equinox will be on Sep 22 at 21:18.

Halloween Trump Card, Spirit Lights! Here is how to make them: Get yourself a few glass jars... or just glasses they work as well. Then head over to the hardware store and pick up some solar powered garden lamps. They are CHEAP! They only cost about 1-2 bucks! Incredible! If you have some halloween hair dye lying around, great! If not, go grab a .50 bottle and cover the inside of the with it. When done attach the top of the garden lamp to the jar and you now have glowing spirit light which will be charged by the power of the sun. Twitter: twitter.com
