No fancy rituals needed, just defeat the Wall of Flesh to unlock hardmode, and then any day might just turn dark with a Solar Eclipse. Just keep playing past that point; it's a 1 in 20 chance each morning.

Craft a Solar Tablet by combining Solar Tablet Fragments found in the Lihzahrd Temple in the Jungle biome. Use it during the day, and boom, instant Solar Eclipse. No need to wait on randomness!

Honestly, just keep the game running. These events tend to pop up when you least expect them. I was just fishing for the 100th time, and suddenly, the screen got dark, and those creepy creatures came out. Timing is unpredictable!

To trigger a Solar Eclipse in Terraria, you gotta pray to the RNG gods, because it's all down to luck. Solar Eclipses are random events that can happen after defeating the Wall of Flesh and only during the daytime. Keep playing, and eventually, you'll get one. Patience is key!

If you're tired of waiting for a Solar Eclipse to occur naturally, just farm for those Solar Tablet Fragments in the Jungle's Lihzahrd Temple. That way, you can trigger an Eclipse whenever you feel like facing off against those unique monsters and grabbing their sweet loot.
