Solar eclipses take place as the moon begins to move as seen from Earth in front of the sun. When the moon blocks the whole sun and causes a complete eclipse, while it often covers half of the sun in a partial eclipse.
Solar eclipses don’t occur every month since the orbit of the moon is rotated with respect to the sun and is not always lined up with the star.
