# Solar eclipse of June 23, 2047

A partial solar eclipse will occur at the Moon's descending node of orbit on Sunday, June 23, 2047, with a magnitude of 0.3129. A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby totally or partly obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A partial solar eclipse occurs in the polar regions of the Earth when the center of the Moon's shadow misses the Earth.
This will be the second of four partial solar eclipses in 2047, with the others occurring on January 26, July 22, and December 16.
The partial solar eclipse will be visible for parts of northern Canada, northern Alaska, northern Greenland, and Northeast Asia.

## Eclipse season

This eclipse is part of an eclipse season, a period, roughly every six months, when eclipses occur. Only two (or occasionally three) eclipse seasons occur each year, and each season lasts about 35 days and repeats just short of six months (173 days) later; thus two full eclipse seasons always occur each year. Either two or three eclipses happen each eclipse season. In the sequence below, each eclipse is separated by a fortnight. The first and last eclipse in this sequence is separated by one synodic month.
Eclipse season of June–July 2047 :
| June 23 Descending node (new moon) | July 7 Ascending node (full moon) | July 22 Descending node (new moon) |
| Partial solar eclipse Solar Saros 118 | Total lunar eclipse Lunar Saros 130 | Partial solar eclipse Solar Saros 156 |

### Solar eclipses of 2047–2050

This eclipse is a member of a semester series. An eclipse in a semester series of solar eclipses repeats approximately every 177 days and 4 hours (a semester) at alternating nodes of the Moon's orbit.
The partial solar eclipses on January 26, 2047 and July 22, 2047 occur in the previous lunar year eclipse set.
Solar eclipse series sets from 2047 to 2050 :
| Descending node | Descending node | Descending node | Ascending node | Ascending node | Ascending node |
| Saros | Map | Gamma | Saros | Map | Gamma |
| 118 | June 23, 2047 Partial | 1.3766 | 123 | December 16, 2047 Partial | −1.0661 |

### Saros 118

This eclipse is a part of Saros series 118, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, and containing 72 events. The series started with a partial solar eclipse on May 24, 803 AD. It contains total eclipses from August 19, 947 AD through October 25, 1650; hybrid eclipses on November 4, 1668 and November 15, 1686; and annular eclipses from November 27, 1704 through April 30, 1957. The series ends at member 72 as a partial eclipse on July 15, 2083. Its eclipses are tabulated in three columns; every third eclipse in the same column is one exeligmos apart, so they all cast shadows over approximately the same parts of the Earth.
The longest duration of totality was produced by member 34 at 6 minutes, 59 seconds on May 16, 1398, and the longest duration of annularity was produced by member 59 at 1 minutes, 58 seconds on February 23, 1849. All eclipses in this series occur at the Moon’s descending node of orbit.
Series members 57–72 occur between 1801 and 2083: :
| 57 | 58 | 59 |
| February 1, 1813 | February 12, 1831 | February 23, 1849 |

### Metonic series

The metonic series repeats eclipses every 19 years (6939.69 days), lasting about 5 cycles. Eclipses occur in nearly the same calendar date. In addition, the octon subseries repeats 1/5 of that or every 3.8 years (1387.94 days). All eclipses in this table occur at the Moon's descending node.
22 eclipse events between June 23, 2047 and November 16, 2134 :

### Tritos series

This eclipse is a part of a tritos cycle, repeating at alternating nodes every 135 synodic months (≈ 3986.63 days, or 11 years minus 1 month). Their appearance and longitude are irregular due to a lack of synchronization with the anomalistic month (period of perigee), but groupings of 3 tritos cycles (≈ 33 years minus 3 months) come close (≈ 434.044 anomalistic months), so eclipses are similar in these groupings.
Series members between 2036 and 2200 :
| July 23, 2036 (Saros 117) | June 23, 2047 (Saros 118) | May 22, 2058 (Saros 119) | April 21, 2069 (Saros 120) | March 21, 2080 (Saros 121) |
| February 18, 2091 (Saros 122) | January 19, 2102 (Saros 123) | December 19, 2112 (Saros 124) | November 18, 2123 (Saros 125) | October 17, 2134 (Saros 126) |
| September 16, 2145 (Saros 127) | August 16, 2156 (Saros 128) | July 16, 2167 (Saros 129) | June 16, 2178 (Saros 130) | May 15, 2189 (Saros 131) |
| April 14, 2200 (Saros 132) |

### Inex series

This eclipse is a part of the long period inex cycle, repeating at alternating nodes, every 358 synodic months (≈ 10,571.95 days, or 29 years minus 20 days). Their appearance and longitude are irregular due to a lack of synchronization with the anomalistic month (period of perigee). However, groupings of 3 inex cycles (≈ 87 years minus 2 months) comes close (≈ 1,151.02 anomalistic months), so eclipses are similar in these groupings.
Series members between 1844 and 2200 :
| November 10, 1844 (Saros 111) | | |
| September 12, 1931 (Saros 114) | | |
| July 13, 2018 (Saros 117) | June 23, 2047 (Saros 118) | June 1, 2076 (Saros 119) |
