Total Lunar Eclipse / Blood Moon

A total Lunar Eclipse occurs when the moon is in a full moon phase. And the Earth passes between the moon and the sun engulfing the moon in the Earth’s shadow. Because of this alignment only the reflected rays of the sun are visible on the face of the moon. The strongest waves in the spectrum of reflected light are the red, orange, and yellow wavelengths. A total lunar eclipse is like the projection of sunsets and sunrises onto the moon. This phenomenon of astrology allows us to view a dramatic and beautiful sight, a red moon, or, otherwise notably named, a blood moon.

The total lunar eclipse requires us to understand two terms that relate to the movements of heavenly bodies,

Astronomy and Astrology. Astronomy is defined as the study of the sun, moon, stars, planets, comets, gas, galaxies, dust, and other non-Earthly bodies and phenomena. NASA simply defines astronomy as “the study of stars, planets, and space.” Astrology is defined as the study of the movements and relative positions of celestial bodies. These movements are interpreted as having an influence on human affairs and the natural world. Astrology is primarily used today to provide information for Horoscopes.
