In Vedic Jyotish (Vedic astrology), a Surya Grahan (solar eclipse) is considered a significant celestial event with powerful spiritual and astrological effects. It occurs when the Moon comes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking the Sunโs light either partially or fully.
๐ Astrological Significance of Surya Grahan:
In Vedic astrology, the Sun (Surya) represents:
- Soul (Atman)
- Authority and Power

- Father and Government
When the Sun is eclipsed, its energy is temporarily weakened, leading to disruptions in these areas.
