The solar eclipse just peaked.

The sun just now is completely covered and the atmosphere is a bit eerie. It is 1.40 PM and there are no clouds but still, it is slightly dark outside as though there is a cloud cover.


It is the peak of the total solar eclipse, a rare phenomenon that is expected to happen again only in 2086.

I am hungry now and I am not supposed to eat before 3 pm and that too I must take a bath again to wash down the harmful sun rays.

After the bath, my husband has to perform a religious rite and then only sappadu(food). I watched the natural phenomenon live in the television but soon I got bored and started blogging.

I feel the festival day (mattu pongal) is slightly spoiled by the solar eclipse.
