Precautions Pregnant Women Need To Take On Solar Eclipse Day & Why
The solar eclipse on 6 January 2019 will be the first eclipse of the year, and one of the five such celestial events to be witnessed throughout the year. While the eclipse will start at 4.08 am on 6 January, it will end at 9.18 am on the same day. The solar eclipse on 26 December 2019 will be the last eclipse of the year.
The eclipse is considered unsuitable for performing auspicious things; these should be avoided from the Sutak Kal itself. The Sutak Kal refers to the time that starts nine hours before a lunar eclipse or twenty-four hours before the solar eclipse, and is considered highly inauspicious for certain things. Special care has to be taken by pregnant women and a few points to be kept in mind are as below.
