Partial Solar Eclipse
 
today, max eclipse is at 13.23 however pregnant women should watch out

http://gulfnews.com/news/gulf/uae/ge...today-1.740558

"Every time there is a solar eclipse, pregnant women panic and the Dubai Astronomy Group is flooded with calls.

One pregnant woman called Gulf News to inquire about the timing of the eclipse. She said her grandmother had warned her not to go out during that time.

The other precautions she has been asked to take is to lie still for the duration and not use a knife or any sharp object for cutting, or it would affect the child. Al Hariri said he guarantees that nobody will be hurt during the eclipse."

you can take paganism out of the region but apparently not the pagan belief system

Ah..It's not as far fetched as some of the nonsense in the Christian Bible.
