That association of that eclipse with the Apocalypse,is very common
here were i live too.It is a very subliminal way to sell a Christian
proselitism,and is very normal that kind of associations in Occident.  In
Orient the people associates eclipse with a trascendental things,but not
neccesarily with a catastrophe.For that reason i reccomend the Scriabin's:
"Poem de'l extassys".  Regards:.
