About 4.5 thousand years ago, people began to think about the explanation for this natural phenomenon like an eclipse. It can be not only lunar, but also solar. For the first time, large-scale observations began in China, and this happened in 1136 BC. It was at this time that scientists first noticed the appearance of such a phenomenon. Almost immediately it was established that total number Lunar eclipses significantly exceed the number of solar eclipses. As a rule, an eclipse of the Moon can only occur when it is in the full moon phase. The very first data on a recorded eclipse began to be found approximately several thousand years ago, after which scientists were able to learn how to draw up a special schedule of these events, this also applies to the solar eclipses of 2017. As a result, it is possible to find out the exact date such a natural phenomenon.

Eclipse schedule in 2017 in Russia

Modern scientists have been able to establish that solar eclipse 2017 in Russia will happen on February 26. Approximate start is expected at 12:10 p.m. This date is related to the annular eclipse. If we consider a total solar eclipse, then this phenomenon should be expected only on August 21. It will start at 15:46.

The 2017 lunar eclipse in Russia may be penumbral and partial. The first type of this natural phenomenon will occur around February 11 at 22:31. As for lunar eclipse, which is called partial, it will happen on August 7 and the start is set at 15:47.

Everyone knows that planets rotate along an orbital surface that is characterized by the shape of a slightly inclined ellipse. It is due to a certain inclination of the planet to the plane where rotation occurs that eclipses can be observed only at certain periods of time. To see such a picture, you should wait until the position of the Moon, Sun and Earth coincides in a straight line.

Solar eclipses in 2017

Throughout 2017, people will have the opportunity to observe such types of solar eclipses as annular and total. Of course, almost everyone understands what a total eclipse means, because such a phenomenon occurs only when the solar disk is completely covered. If you observe everything that happens from the Earth, then a person will not even be able to see the Sun.

An annular solar eclipse is considered a not very complex phenomenon. During such an event, you can see a small rim that usually remains instead of the Sun. This happens only during the period when the star is completely hidden behind the surface of the Moon.

Features of lunar eclipses

As soon as the full moon period arrives, a unique opportunity arises to view a lunar eclipse. In the coming 2017, there will be several eclipses in Russia at once, these are partial and penumbral. For a more detailed consideration, you should carefully study the information on shadow and penumbra. This definition is often found among painting lovers, since quite often they use certain techniques in the process of performing work. This helps give the drawn objects some volume. In life you can find shadow and partial shade everywhere. True, they acquire the greatest scale exclusively in outer space. The shadow of the Moon falls on the surface of the Earth, and there is a penumbral circle around it big size. It is through it that the rays of the sun will penetrate, thanks to which it will become weaker and more transparent.

If we consider a penumbral lunar eclipse, then during this period the direct lunar shadow does not fall on the Earth, but only a small part of it. It is for this reason that it is almost impossible to record changes in the level of brightness of the light emanating from the Moon. If a small earth's shadow is observed on the Moon, then this phenomenon in astrology is called a partial eclipse.

The impact of an eclipse on humans

Such phenomena can have a psychological impact and are also directly related to people’s well-being. Quite often, eclipses are accompanied by hypertensive abnormalities, which lead to severe headaches and a feeling of increased irritability.

IN lunar calendar Eclipses always play a special role. These phenomena occur infrequently, so they should be treated with caution, given their negative impact for all areas of life.

Contrary to the opinion of negatively-minded individuals, lunar eclipses can have some pleasant features for us. In ancient times, eclipses of the Sun or Moon were a sign of what was blooming dark force, black magic, evil. Now everything can be explained by special destructive waves that emanate from such a union of the Moon and the Sun.

Features of the upcoming eclipse

Like any other, the lunar eclipse on August 7, 2017 will take place against the backdrop of the Full Moon. This means that all its negative features will persist and even increase.

On the 7th, almost all of Russia will be able to watch blood moon. This will happen closer to 21:00 Moscow time. The shadow will pass along the bottom of the Earth's satellite, but will still be noticeable to the naked eye. The main thing is that there are as few clouds as possible. For the best visibility, you should leave the city area and get out into nature, from where celestial objects are visible much more clearly.

When it comes to astrological aspects, the most important factor is the position of the Moon. On August 7, she will be in the Sign of Aquarius.

Positive aspects of a lunar eclipse

There are definitely positive aspects. They are few, but they are very important.

Firstly, on August 7, when the activity of the Moon is high and also fueled by the Sun, the action of Aquarius will be maximum. On this day you can try buy something very important and expensive.

Secondly, a change in environment at home or at work will be positive. It would be advisable to rearrange the furniture and get rid of unnecessary things and junk. This will refresh the energy of your home or other room.

Thirdly, new things will be much easier, however, there are pitfalls here. Never try to succeed in something if you have just started it. Create a starting path and return to it later.

This will be a very active and far from negative lunar eclipse, so don't be too careful.

Negative aspects of the eclipse on August 7

On August 7, you shouldn’t get hung up on one thing. This day will be dangerous for everyone, so you will need special dynamics. Be versatile, do not get carried away with solving work problems or excessive rest. The Universe will want everything to be in harmony.

On this day people will be more irritable than usual. Those who usually take advantage of your kindness will pose a particular danger. They may demand free help from you based solely on feelings of self-pity. Don't listen to anyone, have your own opinion on everything. Everyone will try to follow their own line.

Revenge and the desire to exact retribution will be your most dangerous companions. On the days of eclipses, such desires can destroy your energy and, as a result, deprive you of luck for a long time.

Don't do anything rash, because the Full Moon is a time when people’s minds are clouded, when the objective perception of familiar things is replaced by some kind of illusions. The eclipse will intensify this.

Concerning physical activity, then during an eclipse it will be superfluous. Physical exercise better to stop in the evening. The only thing that can somehow meet the needs is leisure, walks, water procedures.

Problems also arise with intuition during an eclipse. Believe only the facts and do not try to follow luck without the appropriate opportunities. On August 7, try to protect yourself from negative people. Increase energy in passive ways - rest, positive thoughts. Good luck and don't forget to press the buttons and
