    Got my telescope out, hoping for some clear sky’s. Fingers crossed. 🙂

    It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion, it is by the beans of Java that thoughts acquire speed, the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning; it is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

    I been ready for the last three this year and will be for this one, especially when we have to wait 18 years for another regular-moon eclipse and especially when this one is a super moon.
    ( I’m waiting for the all the lunatic to act up Sunday-Monday )

    There are some great significance of “blood moon” in the Bible.
    And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for

      signs

    , and for seasons, and for days, and years. – Genesis 1:14
    The sun will be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood before the great and dreadful day of the LORD comes. – Joel 2,31

    That description sounds a lot like a combined total solar eclipse and total lunar eclipse. It sounds like a description of a total eclipse by someone who perhaps has never seen one. Sun turned to darkness = moon directly between the Earth and sun in a total solar eclipse. Moon turned to blood = Earth directly between the sun and moon, Earth’s shadow falling on the moon in a total lunar eclipse. Solar and lunar eclipses are very ordinary and frequent happenings that have occurred many times in our lifetimes, but they don’t happen, can’t happen, ever, on the same day.

    There are a total of 8 tetrads in the 21st century (2001 to 2100). But proponents of Biblical prophecy concider the ongoing tetrad as especially significant because it coincides with two important Jewish holidays: Passover and Tabernacles. Depending upon the century in which you live, a lunar tetrad (four consecutive total lunar eclipses, spaced at six lunar months apart from one another) may happen fairly frequently – or not at all.
    For exemple, in our 21st century (2001-2100), there are a total 8 tetrads, but in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, there were none at all. If we include all the centuries from the 1st century (AD 1-100) through the 21st century (2001-2100), inclusive, there are a total of 62 tetrads. The last one happened in 2003-2004, and the next one after the 2014-2015 tetrad will happen in 2032-2033.
    However, if we want to know which tetrads specifically fell on the Jewish feasts of Passover and Tabernacles, there appear to be a total of 8 in these 21 centuries:
    1. 162-163 C.E. (Common Era)
    2. 795-796 C.E.
    3. 842-843 C.E.
    4. 860-861 C.E.
    5. 1493-1494 C.E.
    6. 1949-1950 C.E.
    7. 1967-1968 C.E.
    8. 2014-2015 C.E.

    But regardless of your beliefs,, enjoy the show!
