Eclipse

An eclipse is an astronomical event that occurs when an astronomical object is temporarily obscured, either by passing into the shadow of another body or by having another body pass between it and the viewer. The term eclipse is most often used to describe either a solar eclipse, when the Moon's shadow crosses the Earth's surface, or a lunar eclipse, when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow.

In mainstream Smurfs media, a solar eclipse took place on Valentine's Day in the cartoon show special "My Smurfy Valentine", in which Chlorhydris the evil witch sought out a special cat with royal blood in his veins to unlock the power of a magical wishing well. The cat turned out to be Gargamel's cat Azrael, who himself was a descendant of the cat pharaoh Azra from "Mummy Dearest".
