What is a Blood Moon
A ‘Blood Moon’ is a natural astronomical phenomenon, which is actually another name for a total lunar eclipse.
During this time, the moon appears red or copper in color, which is why it is called a “Blood Moon”.
A Blood Moon occurs when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, and direct sunlight from the Sun does not reach the Moon.
However, some of the light passing through the Earth’s atmosphere reaches the Moon.
Since the Earth’s atmosphere filters out most of the blue and green light, the result is that the Moon appears red, orange, or copper to us.
Before this blood moon, it occurred on the night of March 14, 2025.
The next blood moon will occur on the night of March 2-3 in 2026 and will be visible in Asia, Australia, the Pacific region, and North and South America.
