A Blood Moon is a member of a lunar tetrad set; composed of four total lunar eclipses in a row. Said eclipses are each separated by six lunar months, which is why there are so few of them. This phenomenon occurs when the Moon is in a total eclipse and then proceeds to light up the sky with a reddish color.

What happens during this lunar phenomenon?

The Moon normally reflects the light of the Sun, and so we always see it as white or yellowish color. When this light changes an eclipse appears, as the Earth interferes the rays reflected by the Moon are no longer the same. 

When there is a total lunar eclipse, the Moon passes through the Earth's shadow and at this moment the green and blue light is dispersed and only a reddish light comes out of our atmosphere. The dispersal of light makes the Moon look red.

Seeing the Moon turn red is very impressive and can scare people into thinking something bad is about to happen. Seeing this unique event is more associated with good luck and fortune than anything negative.

Blood Moon FAQ

Why does the Moon turn red during a Blood Moon? ▼

The reddish hue is caused by the Earth's atmosphere scattering sunlight. Shorter wavelengths like blue and green are dispersed, leaving only red light to reach the Moon’s surface.

Can you see a Blood Moon from anywhere in the world? ▼

A Blood Moon can only be seen from locations where the Moon is above the horizon during the eclipse, so visibility depends on your region.
