Solar Eclipses and Valentine's Day

 We are approaching St. Valentine’s Day a very romantic date in the calendar, what could be more romantic than going out for a meal, being given a box of chocolates or a wonderful bunch of flowers or maybe even seeing a Valentine eclipse of the Sun. 

Sadly this year here will be no eclipse of the Sun on Valentine’s Day , the last total eclipse on St Valentine’s Day was in 1934, but if you want to hang on until the next total eclipse of the Sun on this most romantic of dates of the year you will have to wait until either  2306 or 2325.
