Chandra Grahan 2022: A full lunar eclipse takes place when the sun, Earth, and the moon align in such a way that the moon goes through the shadow of the Earth. During the eclipse, the moon gets into the Umbra - the darkest part of the earth's shadow. In the process, the moon turns a reddish colour. The type and length of a Lunar Eclipse depend on the Moon's proximity to the Lunar Node. On November 8, a full lunar eclipse will take place, which is the last one of not only 2022 but the last full lunar eclipse till March 2025. In between, partial lunar eclipses will take place. While this is a full eclipse, in India, only the eastern part of the country including cities like Kolkata, Bhubaneshwar, Patna, Guwahati, Kohima, Aizawl, and Imphal will witness it. In other parts of the country, it will be visible as a partial eclipse. Gurudev Shrie Kashyap, Chairman/Founder of All India Institute of Occult Science and True Vastu, talks to us about the timing of the eclipse, its dos and don'ts, astrological predictions and its impact on different zodiac signs.
