"When and where is the 2023 annular solar eclipse?
The U.S., Mexico, Belize, Honduras, Nicaragua, Panama, Colombia and Brazil, beginning at 9:13 a.m. PDT in Oregon and ending just before sunset at 16:43 BRT on Brazil’s Atlantic coast.
Everyone in the Americas will see a partial solar eclipse over about 2.5 hours. To see a “ring of fire” for about four minutes in the middle, you need to stand within the (around) 125 miles wide path of annularity.
Coming almost exactly six months before the next “Great North American” total solar eclipse in the U.S., Canada and Mexico, which will occur on April 8, 2024, the annular solar eclipse of October 14, 2023 is being seen as something of a warm-up."

The Month of Cheshvan - חשון חדש
On the Biblical calendar, the month of Cheshvan (ןָשׁו ְח ( ֶimmediately follows the "holiday
month" of Tishri, though it is sometimes called Mar-Cheshvan ("bitter Cheshvan") because
there are no festivals during the month ("neither feast nor fast") and it marks the start of the
cold and rainy season in Israel. The Torah records that God brought down the Flood that
destroyed the world on Cheshvan 17 (Gen. 7:10-11), which lasted until Cheshvan 27 (Gen.
8:14) - exactly one calendar year after it began (the Jewish sage Rashi notes that the 11-day
discrepancy between the 17th and 27th represents the 11-day difference between the solar
and lunar year). Because Noah's Flood began and ended during this month, Cheshvan is
generally regarded as "mar" - a time of judgment and hardship.
Annular solar eclipses can only take place when: It is New Moon. At the same time, the Moon is at (or very near) a lunar node, so the Earth, the Moon, and the Sun are aligned in a straight (or nearly straight) line.
