For Pondering

Okay, so, in pretty much every culture, an eclipise is a very powerful event. Solar, of course, being more powerful, but lunar just as important.

I live in Ontario, and trust me, we rarely get to see eclipses, we get lunar ones. Sometimes.

My question for pondering is: you can get lists of eclipses, solar and lunar, all over the world for the upcoming year(or years). Even if I can't physically see the eclipse, can I still perform eclipse-specific rituals and harness the power of the eclipse? Would it help if I had a live feed on the internet of the eclipse, or can I just visualize it? Or, is it a bad idea?

Anyway, any thoughts would be appreciated!

The energy is still there whether or not you can physically see it. The moon still eclipses the sun no matter where you stand on the earth. Harness that power and make some magick!

Haha, I love that last line!

Thanks for the opinion :)
Like Dez says above, the energy is there regardless of your relative location to the event; we're not on the Tropics of Cancer or Capricorn when the Sun crosses them on the Solstices, yet we still celebrate the event and feed and harness that energy :D

Since you're all technopagany, I'd say a live web feed would be a nice touch, but not strictly necessary. Might it help, energy-strength-wise? For some, no, but for you, I'd say probly :P

I never thought of it like that, with the Solstices.

Yeah, I like the live feed idea too, if I can get one, lol
