Got something like a marriage, start of a business, delivery of a child planned for a particular day? Are you at the cross roads if that day might host an Eclipse, then check out this:
As per astrology, during an eclipse, the alignment between the Sun, Moon and the Earth would be very weak and hence it would not be a good time to expend your energy on important works. But then the Eclipse-day would be a good time to focus on personal and spiritual areas. You can resort to self-care routines and get connected with your inner conscious.
Eclipses are very emotional periods and hence pave way for lots of anger, resentment, frustration and disappointments. Tempers might flare and irrational behaviors are generally noticed, particularly Lunar Eclipses are said to cause mental imbalances. Hence use your energy towards constructive purposes only, better lay low.
• Meditating is best advised during an Eclipse because it would align our mind with the luminaries, the Sun and the Moon.
• Journal your thoughts, emotions, gratitude and feelings.
• Set personal and spiritual goals to be pursued in the ensuing period.
• Forgive and forget the wrongs done to you and learn to heal.
• Resort to charity works and attend to the poor and the needy.
• Many cultures advise to avoid eating and drinking during the eclipse period.
• Sexual acts and conception of marriages ought to be avoided.
• Do not start anything new, like a business or start a career during the eclipse day.
• Avoid using sharp tools and machines as there is the danger of accidents.
• Pregnant women and little children are advised to stay indoors.
Viewing a lunar eclipse would not harm your eyes. However, when it is ending the Sun would be very close to the Moon and hence might affect your eyes, hence be cautious.
Never view a Solar Eclipse without proper eye protection as it can damage the retina and cause partial blindness. This is because during a Solar Eclipse, the brightness of the Sun would be much greater and focused for a viewer from the earth.
