The rotation and axis of the Earth is not positioned correctly every month so a solar eclipse or lunar eclipse can happen.
Why do lunar and solar eclipses not happen every month?
[tex] \huge \red{answer}[/tex]
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon enters the Earth's shadow.
A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's shadow falls on the Earth.
They do not happen every month because the moon's orbit is inclined to Earth's orbit by about five degrees.
