This year there are two Solar eclipses forming June 10th, 2021, and December 4th, 2021. The coming up solar eclipse is an Annular Solar eclipse. 

Solar eclipse formation:

The moon revolves around the Earth and Earth revolves around the Sun.  While revolving in their orbits at times Moons comes in between Earth and Sun, hence, partially or fully covering Sun, thus preventing the sun rays to reach the Earth.  This happens on a New Moon night (Amavasya).

Annual Solar eclipse:

This type of Solar eclipse is formed when Moon covers Sun partially, only in its middle region. Thus, creating a ring-like disc known as the “Ring of Fire” which is also known as the Annual Solar eclipse.

This year the first Solar eclipse occurs on Jue 10th, 2021, in Vaishaka Masa, Amavasya tithi.  This will take place in Mrigasira Nakshatra, Vrishabha Rasi.  The eclipse is visible in parts of Russia, Greenland, and Northern Canada.  If the weather permits those in the United States, Europe and Northern Asia can see a partial eclipse.
