because all the moon phases have to occur before the full moon and the new moon
A Solar Eclipse can only occur at a NEW MOON. Similarly a Lunar Eclipse can only occur at a FULL MOON.
Lunar phases are tightly related to both kinds of eclipse: -- A lunar eclipse can occur only at the time of Full Moon. -- A solar eclipse can occur only at the time of New Moon.
New Moon is.
Solar and lunar eclipses don't occur every month because the plane of the Moon's orbit around the Earth is not aligned with the plane of the Earth's orbit around the Sun.The Moon's path is tilted when compared to the plane of Earth's orbit, so the Moon is not in a direct line with the Sun and Earth. In a solar eclipse, the Moon must be directly between the Sun and the Earth. Similarly, in a lunar eclipse (slightly more frequent), the shadow of the Earth has to fall on the Moon.
Lunar Eclipse occurs when the Earth lies between the sun and the moon while solar eclipse occurs when the moon passes the earth and the moons shadow falls onto earth during the day. :D
A solar eclipse doesn't occur every 28 days because the moon's orbit is tilted compared to the earths.
solar eclipse occur when earth came between sun and moon
A Solar Eclipse can only occur at a NEW MOON. Similarly a Lunar Eclipse can only occur at a FULL MOON.
A solar eclipse can only occur at the time of New Moon. A lunar eclipse can only occur at the time of Full Moon.
The first of a lunar month.

A solar eclipse is when the moon becomes between earth and the sun, a lunar eclipse is when the moon is in earths shadow. They don't occur slot because the moons revolution is at a 5* angle.
Only at the time of a New Moon.
