#suryagrahan #suryagrahantiming

Today on 21 September 2025, the last solar eclipse of the year will take place. Along with Surya Grahan, today is also the Amavasya of Pitru Paksha.
Surya Grahan is considered a powerful eclipse. Solar eclipse carries very high spiritual, astrology, and scientific significance.
Many people believe that if an eclipse is happening and it is not visible where you live, still its effect comes into your life.
Because its effect directly falls on your zodiac sign. So wherever you are and if Surya Grahan is happening, it will definitely affect you.
Science says when the Moon comes between the Sun and Earth and covers half or full Sun then Surya Grahan happens. But today’s eclipse is considered partial because the Moon will cover only some part of the Sun, so this eclipse has become partial eclipse.
In this blog, I will tell you what is the Surya Grahan 2025 timing, zodiac effect, do and don’ts.

Surya Grahan Timing

When the Moon comes between the Sun and Earth and fully covers the Sun then Surya Grahan happens.
Surya Grahan will start on 21 September 2025 and continue till 22 September 2025. This Surya Grahan is also considered as double grahan because it is applied on two days.
Surya Grahan time will start at 10:59 PM on 21 September night. And it will be on its peak at 1:11 AM on 22 September 2025. And it will end at 3:23 AM.

Is Solar Eclipse Visible in India?

In India Solar Eclipse will not be visible because at the time eclipse happens, it will be night in India. But its effect will still be there.
Even if Surya Grahan is not visible in India, still its effect will definitely happen.
Surya Grahan will be visible in Southern Hemisphere like New Zealand, Australia and some places. People living there can see Surya Grahan.

Sutak Timing

Sutak starts some hours before the eclipse and ends some time after the eclipse ends.
As you know Surya Grahan is not visible in India, so Sutak will not apply. If solar eclipse is visible in India only then Sutak applies, but now Sutak has no meaning because Surya Grahan is not visible in India.
