10. Eclipse
A lot many superstitions can be seen and heard during the time of eclipse. Eclipse occurs when the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth's surface as in solar eclipse, or when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow as in lunar eclipse. Though it is an astronomical event, but during these events, superstitions rule the mind of the people. People believe that it is not auspicious to pray, eat or clean your house at the time of eclipse. Even the temples are closed at the time of an eclipse.
