What season is the eclipse?

Answer 1

There is no connection between eclipses and the seasons.

A solar eclipse can occur only at the time of New Moon, and a lunar eclipse can occur

only at the time of Full Moon. These phases repeat on the average slightly more than

three times in every season.

Answer 2

An Eclipse can occur at any season; Summer , Autumn, Winter, or Spring.

Eclipses occur at ONLY New Moon and Full Moon.

New and Full Moon's occur once a Month (Moonth). This is approximately every 28 days.

An Eclipse at New Moon is a Solar Eclipse, because the Moon is between the Earth and the Sun; the sky goes to night(dark) An Eclipse at Full Moon is a Lunar Eclipse, because the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon; the moon appears to go from a bright white circle to a red/grey circle.

The reason we do not see an eclipse every month is because The Moon's orbit, about the Earth is angled at 5 degrees, to the Earth's orbit about the Sun. It is only when these two orbits cross at New/Full Moons we see an eclipse.

Answer 3

An eclipse can happen in any season as long as the conditions are right. Solar eclipses occur during the day when the new moon passes between the Earth and the Sun. Lunar eclipses occur at night when the full moon passes through the Earth's shadow.

Answer 4

No, an eclipse has only a temporary effect.

Answer 5

The equinoxes mark two of the four divisions between the seasons. (The Solstices mark the other two.)
