WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW TO VIEW THE UPCOMING BLOOD-HARVEST-SUPER MOON THAT CAPS THE EPIC TETRAD


Aimee Herd : Sep 25, 2015 : EarthSky.org

"Then God said, 'Let there be lights in the firmament of the heavens to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs and seasons, and for days and years…'" Gen.1:14

What makes this one very special is that it is also a Harvest Moon and a Super Moon, and on a spiritual level, it occurs during the Jewish Feast of Tabernacles.

This Blood Moon is the grand finale of the "tetrad" of 4 lunar eclipses (or Blood Moons—called such because Earth's shadow causes the moon to appear reddish in color) that have occurred at 6-month intervals.

If you are living in the USA, the Super/Blood/Harvest moon will take place in the early evening of Sunday, September 27th—(that's September 28 at 2:51 Universal Time).

A great resource for all things related to this spectacular celestial event is EarthSky.org, which explains why this full moon is called a Harvest Moon, a Super Moon and a Blood Moon, as well as exactly when you will be able to view it where you live.
