Religious fanatics believe that the world will end when syzygy of the sun, moon, and Earth occurs in combination with a solar eclipse.

Astrologers use syzygy to make predictions specific to each zodiac sign based on placement of the moon and its alignment with other planets.

In dystopian books, the syzygy of the sun, moon, and stars often created a cataclysmic disaster that decimated the population and destroyed all energy sources.

Syzygy of the sun, earth, and moon occurs during every full moon.

The syzygy of Mars, Venus, Saturn, Earth’s moon, and the sun is a rare celestial event that happens once every couple thousand years.
