I have read the maximum limit of Lunar Eclipse is 12.2 degrees of arc (i.e. the difference in the longitude between Moon and any one node of the Moon). However on on June 5th 2020, a partial Lunar Eclipse occurred even though the difference of longitude of Moon and Descending Node of Moon was 14.5 degrees of arc. In the same way on 5th July 2020, a partial Lunar Eclipse occurred though the longitude difference was 15.25 degrees of arc. Hence, apart from difference of Longitude between Moon and a Node of Moon, there will be other criteria that decide whether there will be Lunar Eclipse are not. Hence I request the respectable scholars and experts to teach me the criteria for Lunar and Solar Eclipse, please
