Upcoming eclipses
No fear-mongering. An eclipse doesn't fall the same on everyone. It spotlights the affairs of one house from your Moon — a theme, not a fixed event. How it actually lands depends on your whole chart, your dasha, and other transits. Eclipses fall on the Rahu–Ketu axis — the karmic see-saw of pull and release.
☀️ Solar eclipse safety: never look directly at a solar eclipse without certified eclipse glasses or a safe projection method — it can permanently damage your eyes. Lunar eclipses are completely safe to watch.

Eclipses in Vedic Astrology (Grahan)

Read the full guide → Eclipses in Vedic Astrology (Grahan) — the Rahu–Ketu myth, the astronomy of the nodal axis, Sutak Kaal, and how to read a Grahan honestly.

Grahan is the Sanskrit word for eclipse — a solar eclipse is Surya Grahan, a lunar eclipse is Chandra Grahan. In Vedic tradition, eclipses happen on the Rahu–Ketu axis, the two lunar nodes, which is why they carry a nodal, karmic quality.

How the reading works

Each eclipse falls in a sidereal sign and nakshatra. Counted from your Moon (and Lagna), that sign occupies one of your twelve houses — and the eclipse spotlights the affairs of that house. It marks a theme or turning of emphasis, not a fixed event, and it is never the same for everyone.

Times & visibility

Each eclipse shows the exact moment of greatest eclipse in UT and converted to your local time. Whether an eclipse is visible from your city depends on the eclipse path — use the "check visibility" link for the authoritative map. A solar eclipse is only visible from a limited region; a lunar eclipse is visible from the whole night side of Earth.
