Solar Eclipse October 23rd 2014
What Is Solar Eclipse?
A Solar eclipse is a type of eclipse that occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, and the Moon fully or partially blocks ("occults") the Sun. This can happen only at new moon, when the Sun and the Moon are in conjunction as seen from Earth in an alignment referred to as syzygy. In a total eclipse, the disk of the Sun is fully obscured by the Moon. In partial and annular eclipses only part of the Sun is obscured.

Balipadyami ( Balipratipada)
It falls on the 1st day of the bright fortnight of the Hindu lunar month Kartika. It is celebrated to symbolise Deity Vishnu’s conquest over the demon king, Bali.
In a year, there are three and a half auspicious moments (muhurta); among them, Balipratipada is the half auspicious moments. During a calendar year, there are some auspicious days, some inauspicious days, and some days have both or only one aspect. If one performs certain important acts such as wedding, buying properties, etc. during auspicious time, then that act proves to be beneficial. The three and a half auspicious days are such that one can perform any act during the entire day because every moment of these days is auspicious.
