Following the solar eclipse we experienced last month on April 20, 2023, things have been tumultuous in people’s lives. Eclipses tend to have that kind of influence.
During the Eclipse season, we experience two back-to-back eclipses; hence we are about to experience the Penumbral Lunar Eclipse on the 5th/6th of May, 2023.
Penumbral eclipses, similar to other types of lunar eclipses, happen when the Earth moves in between the Sun and the Moon. This alignment causes the Earth to block some of the Sun's light, resulting in a shadow being cast onto the surface of the Moon.
Given that the moon represents our mind, thoughts, happiness, peace, mother, and emotions, there are chances that this eclipse may affect a few of these individual factors. This eclipse is expected to bring moodiness, emotional sensitivity, and outbursts, resulting in strife and conflicts in relationships.
Moon is also the fastest moving planet, so the impacts of the lunar eclipse will be quick. This blog will explore everything you need to know about the upcoming Penumbral Lunar Eclipse and its impacts.
The timing of the upcoming Penumbral lunar eclipse has been sourced from timeanddate.com and is with respect to IST (Pune).
Eclipse beginning: 5 May, 20:44:11
Maximum Eclipse: 5 May, 22:52:59
Eclipse End: 6 May, 01:01:45
Where is it visible: Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian Ocean, and Antarctica.
This lunar eclipse will be visible in India; hence the “Grahan Neeyama '' or the rules, must be followed.
The Penumbral Lunar Eclipse is happening in the Aries-Libra axis, in the Libra sign. So, individuals might experience an imbalanced energy depending on the houses these signs rule in their respective charts, with respect to the Ascendant/Moon sign.
Below are the planetary details in tabular format (the below degrees are mentioned considering the peak time of the eclipse):
