Astronomers and skywatchers are gearing up with anticipation to witness the rare celestial phenomenon, the solar eclipse 2024, called Surya Grahan in India, that is all set to take place on October 2. The Surya Grahan 2024 will be an annular solar eclipse and it will not be visible in India. An annular solar eclipse takes place when the moon passes between the earth and sun, but it does not completely cover the sun’s disc. This means that a ring of sunlight will be visible around the edges of the moon. In many cultures and traditions, an eclipse is considered inauspicious since it disrupts the life-giving energy of the sun. This gives rise to many superstitions and questions, including if a person should have sex or indulge in physical intimacy or not during Surya Grahan. Here’s what you need to know about it.
