I just read up on the solar eclipse that took place this week and found out that a lot of people in Asia saw it as a bad omen. I admit, it's a bit creepy when day turns into night within minutes, but there is a scientific explanation for it in this day and age. I'm not judging, I'm just curious. I was wondering, what is the story behind the believe that it's a bad omen? I know the asian countries are full of interesting stories and legends, passed down from hundreds of generations. Maybe some of our asian friends here at MyLot could enlighten us a little? The last time I seen a solar eclipse, was many years ago, in the 90's. I was actualy looking forward to it, but then fell asleep and missed it and only caught the end of it. So I really didn't see it. more like experienced it LOL. Did you ever see a solar eclipse and if not, do you want to?
