Eclipses Eclipses occur due to the alignment of the Earth, Moon, and Sun. Solar Eclipses here If the alignment is not exact, a partial eclipse may occur. This is when the Moon only partially overlaps the Sun and blocks only part of the Sun from our view. An annular eclipse occurs when the apparent size of the Moon is smaller than that of the Sun, and the Moon does not fully block the Sun from our view. This occurs because the Moon's orbit is elliptical, and so the Moon's distance from the Earth varies. When the Moon is farther away from the Earth, it appears to be smaller. Therefore, there are times when the Moon appears to be smaller than the Sun. If an eclipse occurs at this time, an annular eclipse results. Annular eclipses lok like a "bull's eye". To see a picture of an actual total solar eclipse and to learn more about eclipses, click here Lunar Eclipses A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through the Earth's shadow. Because the Earth is much larger than the Moon, usually the entire Moon is eclipsed. Because the full phase can be seen from anywhere on the night side of the Earth, a lunar eclipse can be seen by more people than a solar eclipse. Since the Moon is moving through the Earth's shadow, and the size of the Earth is much greater than the size of the Moon, a lunar eclipse last for about 3.5 hours (as opposed to a solar eclipse which last on the order of about 7.5 minutes).

A great event for beginners to observe Total and Partial Eclipses A lunar eclipse A lunar eclipse may be partial or total. A partial lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon skirts into the Earth's penumbral shadow. When the Moon is fully immersed in the umbra a total lunar eclipse occurs. During a lunar eclipse, the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, blocking the Sun’s light. We see the Earth’s shadow creep across the surface of the Moon. Lunar eclipses are not as spectacular as Solar eclipses, when day turns to night. However, they last for much longer, and can be seen from any part of the Earth’s surface where the Moon is above the horizon. They require no equipment to view, and are perfect events for beginners to observe. Learn more about solar eclipses Why don't we see a lunar eclipse every month?

65. Ancients Could Have Used Stonehenge To Predict Lunar Eclipses A controversial theory that suggests the ancient Britons had a fine grasp of astronomy. http://www.space.com/scienceastronomy/astronomy/stonehenge_eclipse_000119.html

SEARCH: Hubble Space Telescope advertisement Ancients Could Have Used Stonehenge to Predict Lunar Eclipses By SPACE.com Staff posted: 02:32 pm ET 19 January 2000 Ancient people who built Stonehenge more than 3,500 years ago could have used the monumental arrangement of pillars to predict lunar eclipses, according to a professor of physics and astronomy at Clarion University in Pennsylvania. Sharon Challener, who has been studying the megalith for more than 20 years, discovered a pattern in the puzzling horseshoe-shaped row of vertical columns at Stonehenge's center. Challener, like so many others, had been trying for years to figure out what was the purpose of Stonehenge. She had speculated about, and tested out, countless celestial cycles as they may have lined up with the mysterious stones. Then, almost by accident, she noticed that eclipses are visible from certain locations on Earth in distinct 47-month cycles. That seemed to add up. There were 19 upright columns at the monument's center, which are collectively called the Bluestone Horseshoe. If the Stonehengers placed some stone marker on top of a pillar at one end of the horseshoe during a lunar eclipse and moved the rock to the adjacent pillar every full moon, they could predict successive eclipses. Images Sharon Challener has been fascinated with stonehenge since she was young. Click to enlarge.

Home Astrology Novice Library US Forecast Current ... Welcome to Moon Valley l Energy Vortex l Imprinting l Celeste Teal l New Moon l Full Moon l Blue Moon l News Line l US Forecast Welcome to the Moon Valley Astrologer Moon Valley is a nice little community in northern Phoenix, " the Valley of the Sun". I think I've found my perfect niche in this valley within a valley and what a "coincidence" that the names of both are so friendly with my astrology. I didn't realize I was living in Moon Valley until after the fact. On one side of Moon Valley lies North Mountain where a 20 minute hike up the mountain is rewarded with a view for miles in every direction. It's one of my favorite places and I always get a little euphoric up there. Just driving through the area lifts my spirits and I've concluded that it may contain a natural vortex, similar to the vortices in Sedona, Arizona. I don't think it's " just me..." A Natural Energy Vortex A vortex is the funnel shape created by whirling fluid or by the motion of spiraling energy. An energy vortex is the intersection of multiple ley lines, creating a powerful spiraling of energy coming up out of the earth that leaves a measurable magnetic residue. Quite intense, the effects can be felt within a half mile of one of these energy centers. People come from all over the world to visit the four major Sedona vortices and to perform spiritual rituals. At any time, you can hike up Bell Rock in Sedona, Arizona and find the remains of meditation circles fashioned from stones. A balancing element at the center of a vortex is imparted to visitors, strengthening the inner being and results can be felt for days afterward....

Total Eclipses of the Sun travel to eclipses - occurrence - nine eclipses seen - future eclipses Introduction A Total Eclipse of the Sun is spectacular. Anybody who has experienced nature's most awesome and unusual phenomenon never forgets it. We have met people who have seen total eclipses by accident and their reaction is always one of amazement. Although the entire eclipse can last for a couple of hours, the spectacular total phase lasts only for a few minutes. The maximum duration of totality is just over seven and a half minutes. For any one location, total eclipses of the sun occur rarely; on average, once every 410 years or so. In our home city, London , the last two total eclipses of the Sun occurred in the years 878 and 1715; the next is not due until 2151! In a larger area, they are more common. For England, the last was in 1999 and the next in 2090. For the Earth as a whole, total solar eclipses occur roughly seven or eight times every ten years. If we are to see one we must do some travelling. Kryss has now experienced nine; Talaat six. One of those was clouded out but was still worth being present for. Occurrence of Eclipses Total Eclipses of the Sun occur when the Moon passes in front of the Sun blocking out its light for a few minutes. The sky darkens, the air cools, birds and animals react, and unusual colours bathe the landscape. Because they occur so infrequently, the event is a new and unknown experience for the local people. The reactions of a community awaiting an eclipse are part of the interest for us.

A word about eye safety when viewing eclipses (the red is the Chromosphere) the Diamond Ring I am a total, complete eclipse junkie. I go to every total solar eclipse I can, which hopefully will continue after the turn of the century. I've had a pretty good decade in the 1990s, and I thought I'd write a sort of memoir-type book of my experiences. It's not done yet, and when it is, it'll be a little too much for a web site. But I've included here some of the excerpts that I thought would be interesting. There are many, many excellent web sites out there, with pictures that are much better than mine, and people who have seen more eclipses, professionals who know more, or can do the calculations, or etc., etc. But I guarantee you, there's no one out there who enjoys seeing an eclipse more than I do!

Translation of Sahih Bukhari, Book 18: Eclipses Volume 2, Book 18, Number 150: Narrated Abu Bakra: We were with Allah's Apostle when the sun eclipsed. Allah's Apostle stood up dragging his cloak till he entered the Mosque. He led us in a two-Rakat prayer till the sun (eclipse) had cleared. Then the Prophet (p.b.u.h) said, "The sun and the moon do not eclipse because of someone's death. So whenever you see these eclipses pray and invoke (Allah) till the eclipse is over." Volume 2, Book 18, Number 151: Narrated Abu Masud: The Prophet said, "The sun and the moon do not eclipse because of the death of someone from the people but they are two signs amongst the signs of Allah. When you see them stand up and pray." Volume 2, Book 18, Number 152: Narrated Ibn 'Umar: The Prophet said, "The sun and the moon do not eclipse because of the death or life (i.e. birth) of someone but they are two signs amongst the signs of Allah. When you see them offer the prayer." Volume 2, Book 18, Number 153:
