The exact phase of the New Moon will arrive at 20:37 Kyiv time, and just 10 minutes later, at 20:47, the total phase of the eclipse will begin. This rare astronomical phenomenon will be visible over the Arctic Ocean, the northern Atlantic, as well as in several countries in Europe, western and northern Africa, and North America. Astrologer Kateryna Solovyova warns that the influence of this event will vary for different people: for some, it will bring a chance for positive changes, while for others, it will require special caution and self-control. ### Why you should not make important decisions on the evening of August 12 Traditionally, the first hour after a solar eclipse is considered favorable for planning the future. However, this time the astrologer advises against such practices. The reason is that from 20:37 to 24:00, the Moon will be "void of course," which in astrology is associated with the risk of erroneous decisions, distraction, and a lack of expected results from efforts made. Therefore, on the evening of August 12, it is recommended not to start anything important, not to make serious decisions, not to make large purchases, and not to trust new ideas that arise during this period. ### Who will be most strongly affected by the eclipse Solovyova highlights two groups of people who will be most noticeably affected by the eclipse. The first group includes those born during the following periods: - April 8 to 14 - June 9 to 15 - October 10 to 16 - December 10 to 16 According to the astrologer, it is these people who may get a chance for favorable changes. The nature of these changes will depend on the individual horoscope and which areas of life are activated by the Sun and Moon during the eclipse. The second group consists of people born: - February 6 to 12 - May 8 to 14 - August 9 to 15 - November 9 to 15 The astrologer advises these individuals to be especially attentive. The eclipse may affect areas related to children, health, creativity, romantic relationships, entertainment, public speaking, and prestigious positions. ### Long-term Influence of the Eclipse Corridor Solovyova notes that the influence of the Eclipse Corridor may not be limited to a single day. Its consequences for a specific person can manifest from several months to several years. The astrologer explains this by the need to process karmic situations: if one reacts correctly to circumstances and passes through this stage, the corresponding area of life may reach a new level of development. ### Contradictory Data While astrological forecasts are based on traditional interpretations, the scientific community emphasizes that solar eclipses are purely astronomical phenomena with no proven influence on human destinies. At the same time, many people continue to turn to astrology as a tool for self-discovery and planning. Thus, there is a gap between the scientific view of eclipses and their mystical interpretation in astrological practice. ## 🔍 Fact-Check Verification - [Total solar eclipse in August: is it possible to see a rare phenomenon in Ukraine](https://gazeta.ua/ru/articles/science-life/_polnoe-solnechnoe-zatmenie-v-avguste-vozmozhno-li-uvidet-redkoe-yavlenie-v-ukraine/1256381) - Подтверждает видимость затмения в Европе и Украине, а также его астрономические параметры. - [Hotels in Europe have sharply increased prices before the solar eclipse](https://mignews.com/news/travel/v-evrope-rezko-podorozhali-oteli-pered-solnechnym-zatmeniem.html) - Подтверждено по источнику mignews.com - [Europe will observe a total solar eclipse on August 12](https://www.rfi.fr/ru/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE/20260807-12-%D0%B0%D0%B2%D0%B3%D1%83%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B0-%D0%B2-%D0%B5%D0%B2%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BF%D0%B5-%D0%B1%D1%83%D0%B4%D1%83%D1%82-%D0%BD%D0%B0%D0%B1%D0%BB%D1%8E%D0%B4%D0%B0%D1%82%D1%8C-%D0%BF%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B5-%D1%81%D0%BE%D0%BB%D0%BD%D0%B5%D1%87%D0%BD%D0%BE%D0%B5-%D0%B7%D0%B0%D1%82%D0%BC%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%B5) - Подтверждено по источнику rfi.fr - [„Point of no return“: what the upcoming new moon and solar eclipse will bring to the Zodiac signs](https://bublik.delfi.ee/statja/120602588/tochka-nevozvrata-chto-prinesut-znakam-zodiaka-blizhayshee-novolunie-i-solnechnoe-zatmenie) - Источник содержит подробные астрологические прогнозы Катерины Соловьевой, включая даты, время и рекомендации для разных знаков Зодиака. ## ❓ FAQ ### Q: When will the total solar eclipse take place in 2026? **A:** On August 12, 2026, at 20:47 Kyiv time. ### Q: Who should be especially cautious during the eclipse? **A:** People born from February 6 to 12, May 8 to 14, August 9 to 15, and November 9 to 15. ### Q: Why is it not recommended to make important decisions on the evening of August 12? **A:** Because from 20:37 to 24:00 the Moon will be "void of course," which in astrology is associated with the risk of erroneous decisions. ### Q: How long can the influence of the Eclipse Corridor last? **A:** From several months to several years, depending on the individual horoscope.
