Surya Grahan (Solar Eclipse) and its Effects

A solar eclipse is a New Moon with tremendous impact. The Sun that gives us life and lights our path is joined briefly with the dark and mysterious qualities of the Moon. 

All eclipses indicate change; solar eclipses signify beginnings and usually manifest as events in the outer world.
The heightened impact of eclipse energy can be felt by everyone as much as 3 months in advance and has slight after effects for as long as 3 years afterwards. Although the energies are most prominent for a week on either side of the eclipse (many feel a heightened sense of anxiety during this period), the influence on events continues. Eclipse periods are extremely active, often associated with meaningful events and public exposure.
A total solar eclipse- Purna Surya Grahan will be visible in India on July 22, 2009 from early morning 5:28 hrs to 7:25 hrs. According to the Hindu date it will be on Shravan month Krishna paksha, 30 (Amavasi day), Wednesday, Samvat 2066. This eclipse will be on Pushya Nakshatra and Cancer sign. (Karka Rashi).
According to NASA, for New Delhi, maximum time for this solar eclipse is 6:27 am. At this time the lagna or the rising sign is Cancer of 15 degrees and 7 minutes in 2nd decandate (drekkana) and Sun of 5 degrees 22 minutes in 1st decandate. The lagna, Sun, Mercury and Ketu will all be passing through Pushya Nakshatra with the aspect of Rahu.

This solar eclipse will have a major impact on people who have a Grahan Dosha in their respective charts. They should be careful with their health concerning bones, eyes, stomach and heart. As the Sun is in conjunction with Ketu, surgeries can also be expected.

As the eclipse this time falls in Cancer which is a watery sign, and Sun being a dry planet, severe changes in weather such as drying up of rivers, lack of rainfall and drought like conditions are indicated. Agriculture and crops may suffer and sun which represents government will give ups and downs to politicians and people holding honorable ranks like barristers, administrators or rulers especially in Madhya Pradesh and Bihar as these areas will see total solar eclipse. India’s natal chart has a Taurus ascendant and Cancer falls in the third house and henceforth the significances of the third house will suffer. Transportation industry can expect problems which are evident in form of metro mishaps. Good relations with the neighboring countries are also unlikely. Since the lagna is Cancer which is a movable sign, the adverse effects will only be temporary and would not last for a long time.

Though the impact of an eclipse on an individual is not significant but it can be foreseen only through natal charts. However the effect on various signs can be given as follows:The solar eclipse is not auspicious for the natives of Aries, Cancer, Leo and Sagittarius sign. Care should be taken. While it will be favorable for Taurus,Virgo, Libra and Aquarius. Good results will flow. Average results for Gemini, Scorpio, Capricorn and Pisces are indicated.
