Does it get specifically dark outside during the occurance of a lunar eclipse?


Question by scottidawg@rocketmail.com: Does it get specifically dark outside during the occurance of a lunar eclipse?
I know the moon slips out briefly and then becomes red from the atmosphere of the earth but what about the surrounding area?
Does it become pitch black outside when the moon is red or when it slips out?


Best answer:
Answer by Jim DIt would get a little darker, but a moonless night would still be darker.

What are we supposed to do about the solar eclipse Sunday?


Question by Just Askin': What are we supposed to do about the solar eclipse Sunday?
Are we supposed to sacrifice a chicken or a goat to bring back the sun disk? Or an enemy captive? Or do we send money to a televangelist?

Total Solar Eclipse as viewed from Gordonvale, South of Cairns on the morning of November 14 2012 at around 6:40 am. I've seen plenty of meteor showers from the outback. I watched the 2001 Leonids from the peak of Fitzroy Island, that was stunning. I stop in the middle of the outback on my longer drives to gaze at the stars hundreds of Km from the nearest lights. The solar eclipse was by far the most grand and spectacular show I've ever seen in the sky. The partial eclipse was obscured by thick clouds, but at the last few minutes before totality the heavy cloud passed and we were left with a near perfect view of the full total eclipse as the shadow of the moon passed directly over us. At 0:50 the lens is shaded for a moment, and as the camera readjusts to the light, you can clearly 5 of the 6 points of light where the sun shines through valleys on the moon's surface which is an incredibly rare sight. It was something truly amazing to see in person, if you ever get a chance to see a total eclipse, even if you live a few hours away, GO. I was so glad our video came out as well as it did so we can share the experience with others and preserve and relive this wonderful memory ourselves. What a beautiful world we live in! Watch, like, comment, share and enjoy with blessings. (for sale: eclipse glasses, used once.) 0_o

What is the astrological impact of having so many consecutive solar and lunar eclipses?


Question by ḯґḯṧℌ ẘґ☤ṧ⊥ ẘ@☂ḉ♄: What is the astrological impact of having so many consecutive solar and lunar eclipses?
in the next few months we'll have several Solar and Lunar eclipses, one right after another.
June 1 solar eclipse in Gemini
June 15 lunar eclipse in Sagittarius
July 1 solar eclipse in Cancer

These intermixed with a Full moon in Capricorn (July 14ish), new moon in Leo (July 30)

What is the impact of all this activity?

Answer by MichelleThere really isn't enough room to answer this as well as I'd like, so I'll beg your indulgence to give you a taste of what else you can explore after I say some of this.

Eclipses can tell you quite a bit about things going on in your life. For example, not just the Sun and Moon, but even the other planet will help you to see some pictures you may or may not like to see. I still remember one eclipse in particular when Saturn opposed my Mars in my chart. I'll tell you it was by far one of the most miserable experiences in my life, and it kept coming back to haunt me each and every time that degree was touched by transit until the next eclipse rolled by. I no longer remember if it was a Solar or Lunar Eclipse, and in the broader scope of this explanation, it doesn't really matter.

If it takes place during a Solar Eclipse, then you will see this kind of event based on tension or whatever is relevant to the planetary "exchange" with your natal chart each time that degree is touched till the next eclipse of the same type comes into play. You want to take into consideration which houses will be affected as well as the points of your natal chart that will be touched, and note that the greater impact is *usually* going to be with the Sun, but don't ignore the Lunar Eclipse. That too is important.

In 2000, there were 3 eclipses in one month, just as there will be this time. Two weeks before the Solar Eclipse on July 1, 2000, I had a major head injury that required stitches to repair a severed artery. The transiting Moon was opposing the Solar Eclipse point. During the week of the incoming Lunar Eclipse on July 16, I was robbed of all our possessions. Luckily, my children and I weren't there. And on July 31 that year, there was another Solar Eclipse, and I ended up with a gift of over $ 500.

Also be aware that your Pre-Natal Eclipse Points are important. The Pre-Natal Solar Eclipse Point appears to be connected to "fated" encounters with people and events. The Pre-Natal Lunar Eclipse Point requires a bit more attentiveness to see how it affects you. It appears to be linked more broadly through all of the planets in your chart, whichever one is being touched by that eclipse.

Hope this helps a bit.
