People in some parts of the world are going to witness a total solar eclipse on July 22,2009. A total solar eclipse occurs when the new moon is placed just in the position that it completely covers the face of the sun, as we see it from earth.There are lots of myths spread out there and people from different countries believe them differently. Here are a few of those myths, if u want to laugh at them u have my permission...
* Pregnant women are advised not to go outside during the eclipse to avoid the birth of an unhealthy baby.
* Food cooked during eclipse becomes impure and hence should not be consumed.
* People believe that if someone has a sharp object like a knife in their hands during the eclipse, they will tend to cut themselves.
* Eclipses are a result of fights between sun and moon.
* Red clothing looks black or dark grey.
