How many solar or lunar eclipses occur in one calendar year?
The answer very much depends on the year.
One calendar year has a minimum of eclipses – solar eclipses and lunar eclipses.
Most years – such as 2022 – have only eclipses, although there are years with eclipses (2013, 2018 and 2019), or eclipses (2011 and 2020).
It is very rare to have eclipses in one calendar year. The last time it happened was in 1982 and the next time will be 2038.
Any calendar year presenting the maximum of eclipses must have the first eclipse coming in early January, in order to leave enough room for the seventh eclipse to take place in late December. Then the middle part of the year has to stage three eclipses within a single lunar month – the period of time between successive new moons or full moons with a mean duration of 29.53059 days.
