Grahana terms

Grahana: The Sanskrit term for an eclipse — the "seizing" of a luminary, classically read at the eclipsed luminary’s sidereal position.
Total / annular / partial (solar): How much of the Sun’s disc the Moon covers at maximum: fully; all but an outer ring; or partly.
Total / partial / penumbral (lunar): Whether the Moon passes fully through Earth’s umbral shadow, partly through it, or only through the outer penumbra.
Visibility: We flag whether the eclipsed luminary stands above the horizon during at least part of the umbral (partial or total) phase at the reference location — the naked-eye eclipse. Classical jyotish weights a visible eclipse far more.

Definitions: standard astronomical eclipse classification; the grahana reading follows the engine's eclipse module — see sources & methodology.
