This eclipse is a member of a semester series. An eclipse in a semester series of solar eclipses repeats approximately every 177 days and 4 hours (a semester) at alternating nodes of the Moon's orbit.[1]
Solar saros 149, repeating every about 18 years and 11 days, contains 71 events. The series started with a partial solar eclipse on August 21, 1664. It has total eclipses from April 9, 2043, to October 2, 2331. The series ends at member 71 as a partial eclipse on September 28, 2926. The longest total eclipse will be on July 17, 2205, at 4 minutes and 10 seconds.[2]
This eclipse is a part of the long period inex cycle, repeating at alternating nodes, every 358 synodic months (≈ 10,571.95 days, or 29 years minus 20 days). Their appearance and longitude are irregular due to a lack of synchronization with the anomalistic month (period of perigee). However, groupings of 3 inex cycles (≈ 87 years minus 2 months) comes close (≈ 1,151.02 anomalistic months), so eclipses are similar in these groupings. In the 19th century:
Solar saros 140: total solar eclipse of October 29, 1818
Solar saros 141: annular solar eclipse of October 9, 1847
Solar saros 142: total solar eclipse of September 17, 1876
Solar saros 150: partial solar eclipse of April 11, 2108
Solar saros 151: annular solar eclipse of March 21, 2137
Solar saros 152: total solar eclipse of March 2, 2166
Solar saros 153: annular solar eclipse of February 10, 2195
Tritos series
This eclipse is a part of a tritos cycle, repeating at alternating nodes every 135 synodic months (≈ 3986.63 days, or 11 years minus 1 month). Their appearance and longitude are irregular due to a lack of synchronization with the anomalistic month (period of perigee), but groupings of 3 tritos cycles (≈ 33 years minus 3 months) come close (≈ 434.044 anomalistic months), so eclipses are similar in these groupings.
The metonic series repeats eclipses every 19 years (6939.69 days), lasting about 5 cycles. Eclipses occur in nearly the same calendar date. In addition, the octon subseries repeats 1/5 of that or every 3.8 years (1387.94 days). All eclipses in this table occur at the Moon's ascending node.
21 eclipse events, progressing from south to north between July 13, 2018 and July 12, 2094
