Eclipses 2027

A solar eclipse is a new moon when the Moon hides part or all of the Sun from part of Earth. Tradition reads it as a stronger new moon. A lunar eclipse is a full moon that passes through Earth's shadow. Tradition reads it as a stronger full moon: endings and turning points stand out.

5 eclipses in 2027, in two seasons: February (Aquarius–Virgo) and July–August (Capricorn, Leo, Aquarius). Times are for greatest eclipse, computed from an ephemeris.

There are five eclipses in 2027: the annular solar eclipse in Aquarius on February 6, the penumbral lunar eclipse in Virgo on February 20, the penumbral lunar eclipse in Capricorn on July 18, the total solar eclipse in Leo on August 2, and the penumbral lunar eclipse in Aquarius on August 17.

Eclipse types: Total: the Moon covers the Sun completely along a narrow path (solar), or the whole Moon sits in Earth's darkest shadow (lunar). Annular: a solar eclipse when the Moon is too far from Earth to cover the Sun fully, so a bright ring of Sun stays visible. Penumbral: a lunar eclipse when the Moon passes only through the faint outer part of Earth's shadow. The dimming is subtle and easy to miss. Greatest eclipse is the moment the Moon is deepest in Earth's shadow (lunar) or covers the most of the Sun (solar).
