Today Surya Grahan Date and Time in India 2024
When dealing with Lunar Eclipse Data, if the eclipse starts before midnight but continues beyond midnight, spanning two distinct dates on the Gregorian calendar, the chosen Eclipse Day will be when the Lunar Eclipse reaches its peak. This implies that both the Penumbral Phase and Umbral Phase could kick off before midnight, potentially even on the day before.
The timings for observing the Eclipse are refined by accounting for Parallax in Moonrise and Moonset times, ensuring greater accuracy.
According to Hindu beliefs, the importance of Lunar Eclipses lies in their visibility to the unaided eye. It is advised not to engage in any rituals related to Chandra Grahan when a Penumbral Lunar Eclipse is not observable. Participation in religious practices is suggested only if the Lunar Eclipse can be seen during the Umbral Phase. The majority of Hindu Calendars do not feature Penumbral Eclipses in their listings.
When a Lunar Eclipse is viewable in a neighboring city but not within your vicinity, it is best to refrain from attempting to witness it. It is advisable to adhere to the precautions suggested during Sutak only when the Lunar Eclipse is observable in your own city. The event of Chandra Grahan is recognized even if the Moon remains hidden because of cloudy skies or other unfavorable weather circumstances.
