What is Surya Grahan and when it occurs?
Solar eclipse is a stage in the Sun’s cycle (solar cycle), where the Moon reaches between the Sun and the Earth. At the moment of solar eclipse the Sun is either partially or completely covered or darkened. Usually, solar eclipse occurs on Amavasya day (New Moon Day).

Effects of Solar Eclipse on Zodiac Natives:
The solar eclipse has an awful sight since the ages. Traditionally and scientifically, the Sun is considered as energy provider and the life –giver for the whole universe. When he disappears from the sky, it affects on everything and everybody.

Darkening of the sky in the middle of the day can impact the world very largely. We can see the effect of the surya grahan on the world which may be existed for six months until the next eclipse. An eclipse of sun significantly reduces the cosmic powers and in next solar eclipse that whole energies are restructured.

Astrology tells that solar eclipse shows a falling index or the badly featured expression of the mighty. The results, effects or the impact of the solar eclipse normally depend on the zodiac sign (raasi) in which the eclipse happens. Its results will affect the issues ruled by that particular zodiac sign (raasi) or that zodiac’s category. A powerful eclipse of sun (solar eclipse) can enormously ravage the matters related to that zodiac sign.

Solar eclipse predominantly affects men and the public affairs such as politics and foreign relations. Its effect on women will be very negligible. The solar eclipse may bring in prime changes in governing political parties and may shatter the administrative front.
