The free lookup compares nine listed eclipses with natal Sun through Pluto using an orb you choose. It reports exact UTC peaks and angular differences.
Open the eclipse contact lookup →What counts as a contact?
Each eclipse has a tropical zodiac longitude at its worldwide peak: the Sun for a solar eclipse, the Moon for a lunar one. The lookup compares that one degree with each natal planet’s longitude. A conjunction is near 0° separation, a sextile near 60°, a square near 90°, a trine near 120°, and an opposition near 180°. The aspect method explains why the comparison must wrap correctly across 0° Aries.
A contact does not say the eclipse was visible at the birthplace, nor does it locate it in a natal house. Solar visibility depends on the observer’s position inside a shadow path; lunar visibility depends on the Moon being above a nighttime horizon. Use the global and local eclipse calendar for that separate question.
Nine global peaks in this archive
These are the event coordinates compared by the browser tool. The source calendar calculates worldwide peaks, rounded to the nearest minute; the degree retains the calculation at the unrounded peak. The 2026 sequence has four events and 2027 has five, including faint penumbral lunar events.
| Peak (UTC) | Eclipse | Eclipse longitude |
|---|---|---|
| Annular solar | 28.84° Aquarius | |
| Total lunar | 12.86° Virgo | |
| Total solar | 20.04° Leo | |
| Partial lunar | 4.85° Pisces | |
| Annular solar | 17.63° Aquarius | |
| Penumbral lunar | 1.98° Virgo | |
| Penumbral lunar | 25.96° Capricorn | |
| Total solar | 9.92° Leo | |
| Penumbral lunar | 24.07° Aquarius |
Where interpretation begins
Some astrology traditions give eclipses a special symbolic weight when they aspect a natal factor. The table only establishes whether two calculated longitudes fall within a stated orb. It cannot establish a personal outcome, a career change, or a fixed timetable. A tighter orb reduces the number of contacts, but it does not turn an interpretation into a measured causal claim.
Sources and calculation notes
- NASA eclipse index and NASA’s 2027 catalog independently corroborate the worldwide event sequence.
- Astronomy Engine 2.1.19 documents the eclipse searches and apparent geocentric positions used locally.
The event longitude is the Sun at a solar peak or Moon at a lunar peak. Birth-chart planetary longitudes use the same tropical coordinate convention. The five aspect names are geometric filters; meanings attributed to them are part of astrological interpretation.
