I have a question. Does whatever constellation the Sun is in have anything to do with eclipses?

Sorry for the dumb question

An eclipse, both solar and lunar, involves only the Sun, the Earth, and the moon. No other stars in space have an effect.

Here is a pretty good youtube video that explains solar eclipses.
