This catalog has a page for every lunar eclipse from 2000 BC to 3000 AD, 12,064 in all, shown in groups of 20 years at a time. You can go to any eclipse by selecting the milennium, century and 20-year period from the navigation tabs above; then click on an eclipse's date in the list below to to go its page.

You can see the solar eclipses or the combined eclipse catalog by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "All Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

Lunar Eclipses, 1621–1640 AD

The following chart shows the position where the Moon is directly overhead at the maximum times of the total (in blue) and partial (in red) lunar eclipses (penumbral eclipses are omitted). Each eclipse will be visible approximately from the half of the Earth centred on that point. Use the zoom controls on the left to zoom in and out; hover over a marker to see the area of visibility and summary information on that eclipse.

The interactive map is currently not available.

Note that eclipse dates are specified relative to UT. You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).
4 Jun, 1621 AD
max: 06:31 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.76; Saros 124)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 3 hours and 1 minute, with 76% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
   
29 Nov, 1621 AD
max: 02:21 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.22; Saros 129)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 22% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 49 minutes.
   
25 Apr, 1622 AD
max: 11:36 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.57; Saros 96)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 3 hours and 11 minutes, just 57% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
24 May, 1622 AD
max: 19:16 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.44; Saros 134)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 54 minutes, just 44% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
19 Oct, 1622 AD
max: 09:53 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.32; Saros 101)
This very subtle penumbral eclipse was essentially invisible to the naked eye; though it lasted 2 hours and 52 minutes, just 32% of the Moon's disc was in partial shadow (with no part of it in complete shadow).
   
15 Apr, 1623 AD
max: 04:22 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.90; Saros 106)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 3 hours and 1 minute, with 90% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
   
8 Oct, 1623 AD
max: 11:17 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.59; Saros 111)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 59% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 2 hours and 49 minutes.
   
3 Apr, 1624 AD
max: 18:10 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.50; Saros 116)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 33 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 50% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow.

7 Aug, 1626 AD
max: 18:55 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.89; Saros 103)
At maximum eclipse, 89% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may have been visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon was in complete shadow. The eclipse lasted 3 hours and 58 minutes overall.

The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 32 minutes in total.
   
16 Jul, 1628 AD
max: 10:35 UT

The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 31 minutes in total.
   
9 Jan, 1629 AD
max: 12:31 UT
