In May, the world will witness this year’s first eclipse. The lunar eclipse, called Chandra Grahan in Hindi, is a special astronomical phenomenon that occurs when the sun, the earth and the moon are closely linked in a straight line with the Earth or partially covered with part of moon. On May 16, the full moon day, the moon will be under the shadow of the Earth and will appear blood red.
According to the Hindu schedule, the eclipse or Chandra Grahan fell into the Purnima Tithi of the Vableha month. This eclipse will occur in the signs of Scorpion and Visakha Nakshatra in Purnima Tithi by Shukla Pakakha. The fact that the Purnima Buddha fell on the same day as the eclipse added to the importance of the event.
The first eclipse of the year took place at 7:02 am on the morning of May 16 and ended at 12:20 pm. However, this eclipse cannot be viewed from the Indian continent. Therefore, there is no Sutak period dominated this day. The lunar eclipse can be seen in southwestern Europe, southwest Asia, Africa, most regions of North America, South America, Pacific, Indian Ocean, Atlantic and Antarctica.
A solar eclipse – whether it’s the sun or the moon – can affect all the zodiac signs because some may have difficulty and some may benefit from it. Let’s see how Eclipse 2022 will affect you and your life according to your zodiac sign.
