Symbolically the eclipse could be seen as a moment in time where all that is creative, celebratory and illuminating about mankind is traversed. The light is obscured, absorbed, consumed by the darkness. This resulting black hole represents our ability as a species to inflict great suffering, destruction and horrific acts of violence upon all manner of creatures and the very earth that provides for us. The eclipse demonstrates that darkness persists even in the presence of light. ShelleyVictoria, Canada158 votes Login to vote

A metaphor for the human condition and spiritual hope : the eclipse shows us that light exists beyond the darkness Lisa ShawFort Lauderdale2 votes Login to vote
The eclipse can be used to represent the similarities that can exist when each individual takes time to find out. Although the sun and the moon are different because of the time they appear, they are similar in some ways because at one point they can fuse and become one. Lisa PaulMiami, FL2 votes Login to vote

The Solar Eclipse depicts how the human race has inlflicted pain and suffereing to the essence of this world we called nature. But, it also resembles redemption and salvation as the sun starts immersing once again. Portraying "hope" for the human species. Alexis MofaMiami, FL1 vote Login to vote
Just a eclipse. It's rare, maybe it's beautiful, it do happens. Acient people associate it with supernatural. Nowadays, we can explain it's the moon blocking the sun lights from us on the earth. Darren, GU XiaoyangChina1 vote Login to vote
