The first solar eclipse of 2026 will occur between 3:26 PM and 7:57 PM, according to astrologer Sanjay Sharma, who states that its effects will mainly be felt in Africa and some Western countries, while not visible in India.
The first solar eclipse of 2026 is set to take place from 3:26 PM to 7:57 PM. Astrologer Sanjay Sharma has described this event as a 'kankana-vritti' eclipse, which implies that India will not witness the eclipse directly and its corresponding 'sutik' or pre-eclipse impacts will not be applicable for the region. Instead, the primary effects of this eclipse will be observed in Africa and some western nations.
Despite the eclipse being invisible in India, Sharma mentions that the interconnectedness of the universe means that not only humans but also animals residing in the region may still feel certain influences from the eclipse. The understanding of such celestial events often reflects broader cultural and astrological beliefs, particularly in societies that place significant importance on astrological guidance.
Eclipses are generally deemed impactful events in astrologers' views because they are associated with shifts in energy, fate, and significant life changes. The upcoming solar eclipse of 2026, although geographically distant in effect, could resonate with various spiritual and psychological implications for individuals, regardless of their proximity to the celestial event, thereby highlighting the universal nature of such phenomena.
