The exact time of the solar eclipse is March 9th. During a total eclipse, the solar corona, stars and planets that are close to the Sun are visible.

Solar eclipses are extremely rare events. They have a huge impact on people's lives. The solar eclipse on March 9, 2016 will be no exception.

Interesting facts about the upcoming eclipse on March 9

Astronomers and astrologers divide eclipses into different types and kinds. For example, eclipses are total and partial. When the Moon rises between the Sun and the Earth, it may not cover the entire solar disk. In this case, the eclipse will be partial. If the Moon is completely illuminated by the Sun, the eclipse is called total, but there is a catch. Not everyone will be able to see it, since the shadow falls only on a small part of our planet. On March 9, only residents of Kamchatka will see the shadow from the moon in Russia. So, this eclipse can be called private.

The nearest similar phenomenon can be expected only on March 20, 2034, that is, its periodicity is 18 years.

On March 9, the shadow from the Moon in the regions of the planet with the best position will cover the sunlight for 4 minutes. Astrologers promise the best visibility in the region of the eastern Indian Ocean, as well as the central Pacific Ocean.

Solar eclipse and astrology

On March 9, this astronomical and astrological phenomenon will take place under the influence of the constellation Pisces. This suggests, first of all, that the main and especially significant things and events may lose their importance in our eyes. However, this cannot be called a negative influence, since astrologers predict the emergence of new prospects. Be very attentive to the signs from above, especially in details and trifles.

The eclipse will bring many scandals and deceit into political life. On the other hand, the astrological forecast assures that people's intuition will be sharpened, and the spiritual component of each person will flourish.

Every eclipse causes people to do strange things, so be careful. Do not make rash steps on March 9 this year. One way or another, but eclipses make our life extremely unstable and full of surprises. In addition, on March 9, 2016, the risk of natural disasters associated with the aquatic environment will increase.

Astrologers advise to be more careful and attentive on March 9, 2016 to all Signs of the Zodiac. The lunar calendar reports that a New Moon is also expected this year, which will make such a solar eclipse even more rare and unpredictable. Fortunately, it is highly likely that this fact will have a positive effect on the favorable day as a whole. We wish you good luck and don't forget to press the buttons and

In astrology, eclipses are of great importance. They have a huge impact both on the whole world as a whole and on each person individually. Many astrologers include eclipses in their predictions. The eclipse on March 9, 2016 will occur at 9:58 am (Kemerovo time) at 19 degrees Pisces, and will be the fifty-second in a row of 130 Saros (Saros is the period of repeated solar and lunar eclipses, equal to 18.3 years). The best place to observe the solar eclipse on March 9, 2016 will be Southeast Asia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Australia, and the Pacific Islands. Residents of China, Korea, Japan, Kamchatka, the Far East, Alaska and the Aleutian Islands will see this magical phenomenon only partially. The solar eclipse on March 9 will be total. A total solar eclipse is always fatal.

The last solar eclipse of this cycle took place in 1998. As we remember, it was a difficult time, marked by a default and a serious economic crisis. Although the eclipse of 1998 did not so much portend upheavals as it emphasized the need for change and renewal of the existing system. No wonder the 130th Saros is considered the cycle of completion, when everything that has become obsolete should “sink into oblivion”. On a global level, the impact of one total eclipse is felt until the next one (the next 53rd eclipse of this series will occur on March 20, 2034).

Influence on the situation in the world.

Any solar eclipse falls on a new moon, when the sun and moon are connected in one degree of the same sign. But, on March 9, 3 planets will connect to the conjunction of the heavenly bodies - Chiron, Neptune, Mercury, and the South Node in addition. All this "mixture" will be in opposition to the conjunction of the North Node with Jupiter in the sign of Virgo. Any eclipse is always a trigger for turning on aspects and configurations, that is, for the beginning of some events and phenomena. The eclipse on March 9 will include 2 powerful configurations at once. The first configuration is the "Sail", consisting of the stellium (Sun, Moon, Neptune, Mercury South Node) in Pisces, the conjunction of Jupiter with the North Node in Virgo, Pluto in Capricorn, and at the time of the eclipse, the Cross of Fate in Taurus. The second is the "Tau-square", consisting of Saturn in Sagittarius (the top of the tau-square), the stellium in Pisces and the conjunction of Jupiter with the North Node in Virgo. Brr! Looking at all this "beauty" I really want every president of the country or all the people on whom the stabilization of the situation in the world depends - to have their own astrologer. After all, eclipses are not only scarecrows and horror stories. This is, first of all, the key given to us by the Lord God Himself - the key to establish and implement something, and to avoid something, prevent something ... What would you like to advise those people on whom the well-being of the World depends? If the South Node comes into conjunction with an eclipse, and even with Neptune and Mercury in Pisces - conversations, persuasion, compromises - all this should be left in the past, and now it is a waste of time. What needs to be focused on? - The North Node is in conjunction with Jupiter in the sign of Virgo in a trine to Pluto in Capricorn and a trine to the Cross of Fate (at the time of the eclipse) in Taurus: only defending one's own material interests, developing one's own economy and economy. All sorts of alliances, alliances with other states can lead to the deterioration of one's own personal position. This is my personal opinion as an astrologer (eclipse: Sun, Moon, South Node, Chiron, Neptune, Mercury in Pisces - all square Saturn in Sagittarius). Not to compete who will “drag” more allied countries to their side and conclude contracts with them, but to deal with their own country. The failed gas pipeline through Bulgaria and Turkey clearly proved my case (. Only those states that are not members of any alliances, European Unions, blocks, but are engaged in the development of their own country and its economy will remain afloat. Once again, this is my personal opinion.
The eclipse on March 9 will give a powerful impetus to the development of ecology and health care. The spiritual values ​​that have developed in the world will also be revised. In many countries, I think there will be a rollback towards traditional values ​​- traditional marriages, heterosexual relationships, family, love, children, health. A rollback can also occur in public administration (in our country, this is the nostalgia of many people for the USSR, in other countries, these are attempts to leave the European Union, etc.). In the field of culture and art, both a return to traditions (to the classics) and a revolutionary breakthrough.
It will not do without all sorts of revelations and high-profile scandals of the international level, since behind-the-scenes games, intrigues and deceptions are precisely the negative qualities of the Pisces sign.
Most of the natural disasters will be associated with water: both with its excess (floods) and its deficiency (droughts).
In the area of ​​philanthropy, there will be a transition from blind sponsorship to intelligent active participation. For example, helping animal shelters. Here, the emphasis will not be on the “blind” transfer of funds to the shelter’s account, but on assistance in overexposure and placement of wards in the family, purchase and delivery of products to the nursery, feasible work in the nursery for cleaning and walking animals, providing advertising platforms on your website, office, shop, etc.

Particularly sensitive to the eclipse will be:

1. All people in the area that will see a total solar eclipse.
2. Countries ruled by Pisces. These are Palestine, Ceylon, Philippines, India, Malta, Madagascar, Iceland, all island states. In our country, these are the Kuriles, Sakhalin, Ussuri Territory, Kamchatka, Birobidzhan, Armenia, Crimea, St. Petersburg.
3. People born under the sign of Pisces, Sagittarius, Virgo, Gemini.
4. People in whose natal chart, in the above signs, there are planets and important points.

The March eclipse can have an extremely intoxicating effect on an ordinary person. The current tense “tau-square” configuration can push you to commit rash acts. It will be difficult for most of us to remove rose-colored glasses, and unjustified optimism can be the main reason for the unfavorable outcome of planned affairs. It is better to refuse to make important decisions and postpone the implementation of projects. In personal life, the eclipse can bring confusion, as indicated by the activation of the South lunar node. So, the former love can suddenly remind of itself. A person who was once dear can call, write, or you can accidentally run into him somewhere. Do not give in to emotions, and exaggerate the significance of the meeting. Fate tests your readiness to move away from everything unnecessary. And, if you allow the past to somehow penetrate your life, then later you will regret it. Close all doors to the past!
Try to get rid of envy and resentment during a solar eclipse. Help in this - work, training, physical activity and all types of physical recovery.
During such eclipses, crime is activated. In people suffering from mental disorders, drug addiction and alcoholism, there is an exacerbation. Try to protect yourself and your loved ones, especially children. Be careful. Avoid dark green places, deserted wastelands and parks.

For people engaged in esoteric practice or simply with a developed intuition, the 52nd eclipse of the 130th Saros can be a mystical event. Knowledge, access to which will be opened on this day, will help to significantly advance in spiritual development. The day has a strong energy charge. You can “model” your program for the future, improve and correct your destiny. You can just make a wish and get the results within a few months. A solar eclipse is essentially a new moon, so it is good to perform new moon rituals on such a day. They can relate to love, money, work, business, real estate, and everything that you want to start, develop and promote to another higher level.

Health impact:

3 days before and after the eclipse, it is necessary to reduce mental and nervous stress. The psyche and nervous system these days are more vulnerable than ever. Postpone important negotiations and affairs. Legs (feet) are very sensitive these days, healing foot baths will be useful. Also these days the skin will be vulnerable, the possibility of allergic reactions. Danger of poisoning by both food and drugs. It is not recommended to drink coffee, alcoholic beverages. For people suffering from kidney failure, you should limit yourself to liquids.

The total solar eclipse on March 9, 2016 takes place at 18 degrees of the zodiac sign Pisces. It can be observed, at least, partial phases: in South and Southeast Asia, in the northern and eastern parts of Australia, in the east of the Indian Ocean, in the northern and central parts of the Pacific Ocean. The full phase is available for observation in Malaysia and on the islands of Indonesia: Sumatra, Borneo, Sulawesi. In most of the territory of Russia, this celestial eclipse will not be visible, with the exception of the regions of the Far East (Kamchatka, Sakhalin, Primorsky Krai), where partial phases are available for observation.

Maximum phase: March 9 at 01:59 UTC or 04:59 Moscow time. The total phase of the eclipse lasts 4 minutes 9 seconds.

The impact of the solar eclipse March 9, 2016

The most sensitive to the influence of a solar eclipse will be representatives of the Pisces sign and other mutable signs of the Zodiac: Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius. If in your natal chart personal planets and important points of the natal chart (Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Ascendant, MC) are located from the 13th to 23rd degrees of mutable signs, it will also have a great impact.

A solar eclipse heralds the coming of the new and kicks off change. The nature of the changes is determined for each person individually, depending on the individual horoscope.

The meaning of the eclipse in terms of astrology

The solar eclipse is total, i.e. the shadow of the moon completely covers the sun for an observer on earth. Thus, it is much more influential than other eclipses, able to bring significant and inevitable changes. It can be a turning point, a moment of choosing new options for the future and letting go of the past. There comes a time of discovery and insight, when it becomes possible to create a new future.

Pisces energy, highlighted by the eclipse, stimulates the imagination, allowing potential to be seen everywhere. Mercury, which is also in Pisces, offers to perceive information not only rationally, but also on an intuitive level. Pisces are known for their intuition and the ability to understand the hidden meaning of things, so you can trust the intuitive insights that come under the influence of an eclipse. In some cases, you have to take off your rose-colored glasses to see the truth.

Pisces is a sign of the Zodiac, symbolizing the collective unconscious, where personal consciousness dissolves in the ocean of being. Vibrations of Pisces allow you to discover the Divine presence in yourself, call you to surrender to the flow of life. This zodiac sign is represented by two fish swimming in opposite directions. One fish symbolizes the delusions and illusions that the ego forms based on its own ideas and desires. The other has to do with true awareness and the higher self. Two fish seem to invite us to make a choice - which path to follow? So it's time to take responsibility for your own life story.

Neptune, which is the ruler of the sign of Pisces and the dispositor of the eclipse on March 9, 2016, is located precisely in Pisces, where its properties are most pronounced. In astrology, this planet is responsible for spirituality, mysticism, art, intuition, dreams, fantasies, but is also associated with deception, self-deception, illusions and detachment from reality. In a positive way, the influence of Neptune can inspire and inspire, but in a negative manifestation, it dissolves reality, bringing disappointment and creating confusing circumstances.

The planetary eclipse configurations are tense - the conjunction of the Sun and the Moon in Pisces opposes Jupiter in Virgo, and also forms a square with Saturn in Sagittarius. In addition, negative aspects are activated by the eclipse: the square of Saturn and Jupiter is one of the main planetary aspects of 2016, and the square of Uranus and Pluto, which is active in 2013-2016. All this suggests that plans can be initiated that are devoid of practicality or that are not destined to come true due to a lack of purpose. Interference of external forces, actions to their own detriment or leading to different results than they expected, are not ruled out. Remember the need to soberly assess the opportunities that come, so as not to make a mistake.

The Eclipse of the Sun in Pisces invites you to devote time to introspection, to be in silence and solitude in order to discover something very important for yourself. This eclipse contains a pronounced component of Neptune's energy. The mission of the planet is to take you into fantasies and dreams in order to activate unconscious activity and bring the messages of the unconscious to the surface. Receiving subconscious messages is not always easy, but you can make the process easier. Let yourself dream, lost in fantasy worlds. You might like the idea of ​​listening to some inspiring music, swimming, taking a bath, singing a song, or burning some incense. All of this has a connection to Neptune and will allow you to tap into your inner wisdom.

For responsible business, large purchases, important meetings and trips, the day of a solar eclipse is not suitable, as well as three days before and after the date of March 9, 2016. If possible, move such events to other days.

Solar eclipses sow the seeds of things to come, laying the blueprint for the future. Use this powerful cosmic energy to lay down your personal agenda. A solar eclipse is essentially a new moon, so it’s good to perform a new moon ritual on such a day for the fulfillment of desires. Make a wish and it will get a stellar boost, and the results can come within six, nine or eighteen months, depending on the complexity of the goal.

The current eclipse, according to astrologers, will be difficult for both the individual and the world as a whole. So, what should we expect from the solar eclipse on March 9, 2016?

The impact of the solar eclipse of March 9, 2016 on man and the world

According to the generally accepted classification, the spring eclipse will be the 52nd eclipse of 130 Saros. Saros is the period of repeated solar and lunar eclipses, equal to 18.3 years. The last solar eclipse of this cycle took place in 1998, which was very difficult for Russia. It was a difficult year, when the country was in the grip of an economic crisis and default, which made the Russians realize the need for change and renewal. Astrologers call the 130th Saros the cycle of completion, when everything that has become obsolete must sink into oblivion.

On a global level, the impact of one total eclipse is felt until the next. And since the March eclipse will occur in the sign of Pisces, in 2016, issues of physical and spiritual recovery will come to the fore. Serious changes must affect the field of healthcare. Thus, established methods and methods of treatment may be considered ineffective. Traditional medicine, on the contrary, will gain even more fans. It is possible that the spiritual values ​​that have developed in society will be revised. And the works of art created this year will be able to produce a real cultural revolution.

It will not do without espionage revelations and high-profile international scandals, because behind-the-scenes games, intrigues and deceptions are precisely the negative aspects of the Pisces sign. And most of the natural disasters will be associated with water: both with its excess (floods) and its deficiency (droughts). In this connection, 2016 risks being remembered as a lean year.

The axis of Virgo - Pisces, which is accentuated by the eclipse, is called the axis of voluntary service. Therefore, the countries that will be able to achieve the greatest progress in 2016 will be those countries that will actively promote the careful attitude of people towards each other and towards the environment.

The March eclipse will have an intoxicating effect on an ordinary person. The current tense configuration of the planets, which includes the Sun, Moon, Jupiter and Saturn, will push you to commit rash acts. It will be difficult for most of us to take off the rose-colored glasses, and unjustified optimism will be the main reason for the unfavorable outcome of the planned cases. In this connection, on March 9 and the next two days, it is better to refuse to make important decisions and postpone the implementation of ambitious projects.

In personal life, an eclipse can bring confusion and confusion, as indicated by the activation of the Descending Lunar Node. So, the former love can suddenly remind of itself. It is not necessary that a person who was once dear to you call, write or pay a visit, you can accidentally run into him under the most mysterious circumstances. Do not give in to emotions and do not exaggerate the significance of the meeting. Fate tests your readiness to move away from everything unnecessary. And if you allow the past to enter your life, you will later regret it.

It is desirable to devote March 9, 2016 to health care. The great influence on this day of Neptune and the number 7 (52nd eclipse: 5 + 2 = 7) emphasizes that the physical state will directly depend on the mental state. If envy, resentment, aggression or anger lurk inside you, then during a solar eclipse you will be able to get rid of them. Meditation, music therapy and water procedures will help in this.

For people engaged in esoteric practice or simply with a developed intuition, the 52nd eclipse of the 130th Saros can be a mystical event. Knowledge, access to which will be opened on this day, will help to significantly advance in spiritual development. Those who want to enlist the support of fortune for a long time should pay more attention to others on March 9. Throw away selfishness and help those who need your help: a relative, friend, neighbor... And if doing at least one good deed a day becomes a habit, then 2016 will become one of the brightest in your life. And the troubles that an eclipse could bring will bypass you and your home.

March this year will be associated not only with International Women's Day - on March 8, 2016 (March 9 at about 5 am Moscow time) there will be a solar eclipse. The occultation of the Sun by the Moon is one of the most impressive astronomical coincidences, which allows us to see our luminary with the naked eye! In addition, this is a great chance for amateur astronomers and photographers to get impressive pictures.

However, there is a sad nuance - on the territory of Russia, the eclipse will be visible only in the Far East and Kamchatka. But even that is incomplete - the dark disk of the Moon only draws along the edge of the Sun, transforming it like. If the eclipse had happened a little earlier, the morning in central Russia would have begun with a beautiful view of the closed Sun. But we have what we have.

The spring eclipse in 2016 can rightfully be called an "island" eclipse: it will be best seen in the morning in the Indian Ocean, as well as in the northern and western parts of the Pacific Ocean. Land in the zone of total eclipse will be mainly islands - Indonesia, Hawaii, the Philippines, as well as individual islands of Micronesia. It is there, near the Caroline Islands, at 1:58 GMT that the maximum phase of the solar eclipse will occur.

Part of the eclipse will be visible in Australia, where the Moon will cover the disk by more than half. The eclipse will not be more lucky for the Chinese and Japanese than ours - the Sun in their sky will close only by 10-20 percent. The same "scanty" eclipse will be seen at sunset by the inhabitants of Alaska.

Cities and eclipse observation schedule

How to see an eclipse?

Although the total eclipse will not be observed in Russia, we are nonetheless lucky. The Hawaiian Islands, near which the central point of the eclipse will pass, is the world astronomical center, on the high mountains of which are located. Therefore, on March 9, we will still be able to enjoy the majestic spectacle of the Sun covered by the Moon - but not with our own eyes, but through high-quality online broadcasts.

Advice to the lucky ones who are lucky enough to be in Hawaii or Singapore, residents of the Far East, as well as everyone in the future - dark filters are needed to observe a solar eclipse, whether it be a welding mask or just very dark tinted glass. Watching the Sun with unprotected eyes cost the famous sight!

With a telescope and a good filter, you can take amazing pictures. For example, this one is the transit of Venus across the solar disk.

In addition, I would like to remind you that sunglasses for the most part do not provide full protection. Indeed, in addition to visible bright light, the Sun is also ultraviolet, which is no less harmful to the retina. In order to protect against it, an additional filter is applied to professional equipment. Remember: caution is the first commandment of astronomy and astronautics.

Interactive eclipse map

Here you can see an interactive map powered by Google Maps, designed to make it easier to predict the phases of a solar eclipse for each region. Despite the fact that the map is in English, it is quite easy to deal with it - just click on any place captured by the eclipse coverage area.

How are eclipses predicted?

The solar eclipse of March 8-9, 2016 is the next event of Saros 130 - a period of 6585 days and 8 hours, during which the eclipse occurs approximately in the same place. The last eclipse in the sequence happened on February 26, 1998, and it will repeat on March 20, 2034.

How do astronomers know the date and location of an eclipse? Long-term observations allowed people thousands of years before our era to find out that during one saros, 43 solar eclipses mainly occur - 15 partial and annular, and 13 more total. This pattern is justified by the ratio of the Earth around the Sun with the period of rotation of the Moon around the Earth. Knowing the exact parameters of the orbits, scientists can easily calculate the time and place of the eclipse - literally to the nearest second.

The next eclipse that can be observed at the middle latitudes of Russia will occur on August 11, 2018. And a full-fledged eclipse, during which the luminary will be 100% covered by the Moon, will have to wait even longer - right up to August 2026.

Finally, an interesting fact: the expectation of eclipses in Russia is almost a national custom. The first ruler who took care of the widespread publicity of the approaching eclipse was Peter I. Suspecting that the soldiers might be frightened by the eclipse in May 1706 and take it for a bad sign, the emperor took care of popularizing the causes of the solar eclipse. Since then, announcements of astronomical events have become a tradition in the Russian press.
