There can be as many as seven eclipses (solar plus lunar) in any one year. In 1935 there were five solar eclipses - four partial and one annular. On average, there is a total solar eclipse visible somewhere about every 18 months. However, from any one location on Earth, total eclipses take place on average only once in several hundred years.
There are generally two solar eclipses and two lunar eclipses each year. Sometimes, we get two partial eclipses a month apart in place of one total eclipse. For example, in 2011 there will be four partial solar eclipses, and no total eclipses. The maximum possible number of eclipses is five in a year, which is very rare.
