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.

Eclipses occur in groups of two or three within an eclipse season which lasts for 36 days. During this time any Full or New Moons occur as Lunar and Solar Eclipses respectively. An eclipse season occurs while the Sun is within eighteen degrees of one of the Moonâs Nodes, that is the points on the Moonâs orbital path where it crosses the path of the Sun. Eclipse seasons arise every six months. Eclipses are us!
