The logic behind not having food during eclipse is , that during eclipse, bacterial growth on earth shoots up … coz there is no sun to keep dem under control…….

I agree with your post..

like never to walk under a ladder and so on, where does it end, nice read on this subject.

I haven’t followed eclipses for some time, but didn’t know one was scheduled for your area. I saw a total while at Dundlod Castle, just northwest of Jaipur, in October, 1995. Watching the local before and after was half the interest, everything from drum beating to hiding. Few stayed out to watch, but went inside to watch on TV.
A man a woman nearby stayed out through the whole thing and watch with aid of a sun filter. Dangerous. I had seen another total in Bolivia several years earlier and native Imara show same fears.

If you have the opportunity, definitely don’t miss one. Among the best experiences in my life. Absolutely incredible.

Interesting!

eclipses must have inspired so many different superstitions across the world over the centuries – interesting read thanks!
