f68r: eclipse from 1419?

[NosDa]

This is all, let me know what you think! I'm 100% NOT professional in this field, so I don't know if there are serious flaws here. Thank you!!

I'm not an expert in eclipses either, but looking at the map of the eclipse I assume the red band is the total eclipse and the blue lines denote various levels of partial eclipse (75%/50%/25%?), with Europe being mostly in 15-35% eclipse zone. The first solar eclipse I ever experienced was a 30% one, and without special glasses I guess I would have hardly noticed it at all. The general daylight became somewhat less bright, but about the same as when you have the sun blocked by the thinnest of clouds. 70% of the sun uncovered is still broad daylight, there were no stars visible and the sky was as blue as normal. If I didn't know there was supposed to be an eclipse, I wouldn't have noticed it even if I was outside at the moment. To actually see the stars during the eclipse of 1419 one would have to be in central Africa or somewhere in the east, within the red band on the map.

To perhaps explain a misconception: Eclipses don't have to be total, nor planetary bodies visible in order to have astrological importance. They have a global impact. These systems were created ideologically, after observation, but observation is not a required component for efficacy. In this, the underlying behaviour of the wandering stars doesn't stop because we don't see them currently. If we know that the two luminaries are due to be meeting at a node, that dynamic is happening regardless of whether we witness it. We anticipate the movements of the planets before they happen, due to prior understanding of their cycles. The astrological effects of such an event are still taking place, and still need recording. 

I noted to the OP that the Pleiades obtained significance partly because of the heliacal risings that those fixed stars make. However, they also have use as seasonal markers for that reason, if you're attempting to mark something like an eclipse.
