Blood Moon over Edmond Oklahoma
On the night of April 14-15, the planet Mars – closest in 6 years – will be near the eclipsed moon. The star Spica will also be nearby.
Although single blood moons happen fairly regularly, four appearing so closely together is extremely rare. There have only been a series of blood moons a handful of times over the past 500 years.
So what exactly is a blood moon and what is the biblical significance?
"A blood moon is when the Earth comes between the sun and the moon," Hagee explained. "And the sun is shining through the atmosphere of the Earth and casts up on the moon a red shadow. And so the moon appears to be red."
Such moons appear several times in scripture.
In the book of Joel, God says there will be "wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire…the sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord."
In Acts, the Apostle Peter repeats that verse from Joel. And the book of Revelation says that during the Great Tribulation, "the moon will become like blood."
Blood moons are set to appear in April 2014, on Passover, and then again in September 2014 during the Feast of Tabernacles, or Sukkot.
The timing is the same for 2015 -- a total of four blood moons, all appearing on Jewish feast days.
"The sun and the moon and the Earth are controlled by God almighty," Hagee said. "He is the one that is getting them in a direct alignment on a certain day at a certain time -- but each time, it's a Passover or Sukkot.

Lunar Eclipse - Dec 21st 2010 as seen from Tampa, FL. It was a clear night. Eclipse started almost 1:40AM EST and by 2:30AM EST, Moon was totaly eclipsed. Have taken here multiple shots as the eclipsed progressed.

The full moon, several hours before the eclipse. Just after moon rise.
Here in Sussex, the eclipse was due to begin at 01:10 ... become total at 03:11 ... totality lasting until 04:24 ... with the eclipse finishing at 06:24. I stuck it out until about 03:45, but even after that, I kept getting up for a sneaky peek out the window!
Various stages of the eclipse of the full Blood Moon ... seen from my garden on a perfect September night.
My photos are not technically brilliant. I have neither the equipment nor the experience to achieve that. There will be better photos out there on Flickr!
What was brilliant was being there, enjoying that amazing celestial experience. My photos are there to remind me that I was there ... as if I could ever forget!
