Where does the 12 August 2026 eclipse pass?

The path of totality crosses Iceland, eastern Greenland and northern Spain (Galicia, Asturias, Cantabria, La Rioja, Navarra and Aragón). Maximum magnitude 1.0 (total).

How does this eclipse affect my natal chart?

It depends on the natal house where the eclipse degree (20° Leo) falls and on exact aspects to your planets. Our tool computes the 7 classical contacts (conjunction, opposition, square, trine, sextile) within 4° orb and the affected Placidus house.

How long does the Ptolemaic influence of the eclipse last?

Ptolemy (Tetrabiblos II.10): a solar eclipse lasts as many YEARS as equinoctial hours of totality. The 12 Aug 2026 totality lasts ~1.6 hours → ~1.6 years of influence, modulated by local magnitude and the angle (ASC/MC/DSC) where it falls in your local chart.

What is the Lord of the Eclipse (Almuten)?

It is the planet with most essential dignity at the eclipse degree. For 12 Aug 2026 (20° Leo) the Lord is Jupiter (alternate ruler of Fire triplicity per Ptolemy, since the calc falls on the Sun). The Lord gives the event's color and nature.

Is the eclipse visible from my city?

Total in Iceland and northern Spain. Partial throughout Europe, parts of North America and West Africa. Our tool computes the exact magnitude for your location using Swiss Ephemeris (NASA-grade precision).

What does the Ptolemaic rule say about when it will manifest?

If the eclipse falls near the local Ascendant: rapid onset (first 4 months), peak in first third. Near the Midheaven: onset months 4-8, peak in middle third. Near the Descendant: slow onset (months 8-12), peak in last third (Tetrabiblos II.10).

Do I need to register to use the tool?

No. The basic analysis is free without signup. The full 5-layer dossier requires PRO (€7.99/mo) with 5 free days no card needed.

Die Regel der Drittel und Quartale

„Die Sonnenfinsternis dauert so viele Jahre wie äquinoktiale Stunden der Totalität; die Mondfinsternis so viele Monate. Wenn der Grad nahe dem lokalen Aszendenten fällt: schneller Beginn, Höhepunkt im ersten Drittel. Nahe dem Medium Coeli: zweites Quartal, mittleres Drittel. Nahe dem Deszendenten: langsam, letztes Drittel." — PTOLEMÄUS, Tetrabiblos II.10
