Today’s post is the second in a 10-part series involving serendipitous and mysterious events and occurrences involving the date of Nov. 14th (the same date my mother died). These posts will be categorized as events that happened before Nov. 14, the day of Nov. 14th, and after Nov. 14, 2013. Enjoy!
The second serendipitous occurrence to take place before Nov. 14th has to do with a KTL BlogTalkRadio broadcast on Nov. 6th, 2013. The first and most obvious thing to note is that the twins that host the show, Blue Pill and Red Pill, were born on Nov. 14th! But then it gets deeper.
One of the hosts shared how he “serendipitously” came across some information on solar eclipse families and how the one that had just took place on Nov. 3rd had special significance to his personal family (his younger brother was born on Nov. 3rd). Apparently, solar and lunar eclipses belong to families called Saros that are made up of 72 eclipses in an expand of 1,280 years. The Nov. 3rd solar eclipse was number 23 of Saros 143, a series that began on March 7, 1617 and ends on April 23, 2897, which is the same day as their mother’s birthday! But now here’s the kicker…
Since each Saros family happens every 18 years, the one that happened previously was on Oct. 24, 1995 (the same date as the last day of Durga Puja that I wrote about when my mother was first hospitalized a year earlier). The next one in this series will take place (you guessed it) on Nov. 14, 2031. All the while I was listening intrigued by the significance this eclipse had for the Pill’s family, little did I know what it would mean for me in about a week! Until next time.
