Have you ever wondered if rare planetary events have an impact on your life? Eclipses occur on average four times a year—two solar and two lunar. Eclipses happen when there is a new moon or a full moon and the orbits of the sun, moon, and earth align in three-dimensional space. So, what does this mean for you?
What are eclipses?
When there is a lunar eclipse, the Earth’s shadow blocks the sunlight from reaching the moon. During a lunar eclipse, half of the planet can see the Earth’s shadow stretch far into space.
When we have a solar eclipse, the moon blocks the sunlight that reaches Earth, but this happens at a very narrow and concentrated point. Very few people have the opportunity to see a solar eclipse in their lifetime unless they deliberately travel to where it is occurring. The phenomenon of an eclipse illustrates the amazing architecture of our solar system, especially a solar eclipse.
Astrologically speaking, eclipses display unusual and supernatural powers. Hindu mythology speaks of demons that swallow the sun and moon during eclipses. These demons, the lunar nodes, and the intersection of sensitive points are portals to other dimensions and show us where our karma is accelerating most rapidly.
The facts
Consider this: what are the chances that any two arbitrary celestial bodies could be exactly the same size and appear to fit inside each other, especially from our perspective here on Earth? What are the odds that a huge ball of fire (the sun) would appear exactly the same size as the moon to us?
The reason for this relates to the essence of life itself and the sacred vibration of the number 108. Well-known Hindu mysticism revolves around the number 108. The origin of this sacred number comes from the relationship between the sun, the moon, and the earth. The sun and the moon appear to us to be exactly the same size due to the symmetry of scale and distance.
Basically, 108 moons could fit between the Earth and the moon, and 108 suns between the sun and the Earth. The measurement, whether on scale or in distance, is identical. This is the sacred vibration that creates life. Without the sun and the moon, there would be no life on Earth. In the past, humanity was more intelligently connected to this reality.

The use of energy from an eclipse
Pay attention to how you feel at the exact moments when an eclipse is occurring. Whether you can see it or not, the Earth is being affected and is in a powerful vortex at that time. These are great moments for meditation and reflection on the nature of the sun and the nature of the moon.
