|| Solar Eclipse

The Solar Eclipse Egregore embodies a celestial residual belief construct formed through centuries of empirical failure, symbolic displacement, and narrative repetition. It encodes widespread teratogenic fears, wherein pregnant women exposed to eclipse light are believed to risk miscarriage or fetal deformation. This expands into additional contamination taboos, where any food prepared, water drawn, or objects handled during the eclipse are seen as cursed, spoiled, or spiritually toxic. At the symbolic threshold of light and darkness, the eclipse also embodies transformation into evil or cursed forms, such as in folkloric precedents of corrupted identity or possession. It even 'contaminates' action—the eclipse is a period of suspended causality, where actions are believed to backfire or fail. Multiplicative karma beliefs further reinforce paralysis, as any deed—good or evil—is thought to carry exponential consequence.   Eclipses signal conflict or celestial warfare, wherein order is temporarily overthrown. Simultaneously, the event activates apocalyptic symbolism, interpreted as a harbinger of wrath, divine retribution, or epochal upheaval.   Animal behavior becomes omenic, with erratic movement or unnatural stillness—deer thrashing, birds falling silent—interpreted as evidence of cosmological stress. Under this strain, populations often default to codified repellants—obsidian blades, iron pins, symbolic keys—worn to ward off invisible harms. Blood-avoidance practices emerge from fears of unhealing wounds or spiritual infection.
