Total Solar eclipse Saros_127 July 2-2019

You may not have noticed on July 2, 2019 @ 12:27hrs, 17°S: 37´, 108°W42´, Saros 127 Total Solar eclipse 3North path was projected across the Southern Pacific Ocean towards Chile. The path fell well south of the equator?

 

 How can that be? The Sun’s declination was +23° Cancer and the Moon’s declination was + 22°22´Cancer. 

 

The astronomy of eclipses is complex, geocentric Earth in its orbit around the Sun has just past its aphelion-(most distant in its orbit from the Sun). Astronomy underpins Astrology and our life is just as nuanced as the multiplicity of astronomy.
