Eclipse 1531 AD

This solar eclipse was likely seen by the Aztecs. It is very interesting to think that 9 months later Our Lady of Guadalupe appeared to Juan Diego on December 9 , 1531. In the darkness and terror of solar eclipse to ancient people, God was preparing to enter the world in a physical manifestation. Note today near the epicenter of this solar eclipse is the Monastery of Our Lady of Guadalupe outside of Silver City, New Mexico.
