Solar Eclipse October 2022 – Surya Grahan
It is one of the rare occasions where the Solar Eclipse 2022 occurs right after Diwali. Some might consider this event in a negative context. On the brighter side, this is the time when the family units together and witnesses this spectacle through the news channels.
In this short blog, you’ll find details regarding Surya Grahan 2022 and Solar Eclipse 2022 timings.
Today, October 25, there will be partial solar eclipse, also known as “Surya Grahan” visible over sections of western Asia, Europe, the North Atlantic Ocean, the Middle East, northern Africa, and the North Indian Ocean. With the exception of a few provinces in the northeast, most of India’s states will be able to view solar eclipses. India will sadly be unable to witness the eclipse’s grand climax because it won’t be complete until after night.
Even for a relatively short time, it is not advisable to view the eclipsed Sun with the naked eye. Even when the Sun is mostly blocked by the Moon, chronic eye damage and eventual blindness still occur.
What is Solar Eclipse or Surya Grahan?
When the moon covers the sun and throws a shadow on Earth, there is a solar eclipse. Only during the new moon phase, when the moon passes directly between the sun and Earth and casts shadows on its surface, does a solar eclipse take place.
There are three different forms of solar eclipses: annular solar eclipse, total solar eclipse, and partial solar eclipse. Let us remind you that the first partial surya grahan 2022 occurred on April 30, and the second partial eclipse will occur on October 25, 2022, the second day of Diwali.
Solar Eclipse 2022 India Timing:
The Solar Eclipse, also known as Surya Grahan 2022, will occur on October 25, 2022, at approximately 4:20 PM. Russia, Europe, Siberia, South Asia, West Asia, and Africa will be able to see it. Holy books from around the world visit this as one of the best and pure moments.
If you reside in one of the zones above, you can view the solar eclipse outside on October 20, 2022. However, we advise not seeing the eclipse with bare eyes. Instead, wear sunglasses or, for the easiest method, hold an X-ray in front of your eyes.
Many Pandits in the Hindu religion view this event as encouraging, and they advise people to pray to God for their requests to be granted as quickly as possible. In India, the Surya Grahan will start at 4:20 PM and terminate at 6:03 PM in 2022. Most Indian cities will be able to witness it, and most likely, every state will be able to see the solar eclipse in 2022.
Solar Eclipse October 2022 – State Wise Timing:
- If the October 2022 solar eclipse that will occur in Delhi is the one we are referring to, it will begin there at 4:29 PM Indian Time.
- Similarly, the solar eclipse will begin at 5:14 pm in Chennai.
- In Kolkata, the solar eclipse will begin at 4:52 PM Indian Standard Time.
- Speaking of Mumbai, the solar eclipse will begin at 4:49 p.m. local time.
- The duration of the total solar eclipse will be between one hour and one hour and nineteen minutes if we know where Delhi and Mumbai are.
- Like Chennai and Kolkata, the total eclipse time in October 2022 will be approximately 31 and 12 minutes.
Never look directly at the Sun, whether it is eclipsed or not, without any eye protection. The radiation from the Sun can burn the retinas in your eyes, causing irreparable harm or even blindness.
