In The Book Of The Eclipse, David Ovason explores the profound impact that eclipses have had on both historical events and individual lives. He presents a compelling argument that these celestial occurrences are not merely astronomical phenomena but pivotal moments that have shaped the course of history. From the foundation of Rome to the crucifixion, and even the significant events surrounding figures like Christopher Columbus and Princess Diana, Ovason illustrates how eclipses have often coincided with transformative moments in time.

Ovason delves into the historical significance of eclipses, providing numerous examples that highlight their role as markers of change. For instance, he discusses how the establishment of Washington D.C. was intertwined with an eclipse, suggesting that these events carry deeper meanings and connections that resonate through time. The author also examines the implications of eclipses in relation to political events, notably hinting at the future challenges faced by President Clinton, thereby weaving a narrative that connects the past with contemporary issues.

This exploration not only enriches our understanding of eclipses but also invites readers to contemplate their own connections to these celestial events, offering a unique blend of history, spirituality, and astrological insight.
