Mid Afternoon Vlog - Super Moon, Blue Moon and Blood Moon

in astronomy •  7 years ago 


What Up Peoples,

So today I'm going to talk about the second most important object in the sky that to governs ours lives, The Moon. Most would not agree with that statement but I feel that the moon has more of an impact on us than we give it credit for. We use to measure our calendar by moon cycles and women's ovulation cycles are pretty much synced up with the new and full moons jus tot give some examples. Given that we are made up mostly of water it would make sense that the gravitational pull of the moon would have some type of effect on us.

So why am I talking about the moon today?

Well we had in interesting convergance happen last night that I was just made aware of when I turned on the news. We had a Super, Blue and Blood moon happen all at the same time. So what exactly does that mean? Well let's go by the common definition of these three phenomena .

Super Moon

A supermoon is a full moon or a new moon that approximately coincides with the closest distance that the Moon reaches to Earth in its elliptic orbit, resulting in a slightly larger-than-usual apparent size of the lunar disk as seen from Earth

Blue Moon

  1. a phenomenon whereby the moon appears bluish owing to smoke or dust particles in the atmosphere.
  2. a second full moon in a calendar month.

Blood Moon

the phenomenon whereby the moon in total eclipse appears reddish in color as it is illuminated by sunlight filtered and refracted by the earth's atmosphere.

So on a basic level the moon was closer to us that normal (Super Moon), this was the second full moon this month (Blue Moon) and the earth ellipsed the moon giving it a reddish color (Blood Moon). Is this some type of sign from the cosmos? Maybe who's to say but idiosyncrasies like this are interesting none the least.

What makes this so special?

The rare Super Blue Blood Moon is finally here! This morning, a rare treat will light up the sky: a Blue Moon, a total lunar eclipse and a supermoon all at the same time! It's the first total lunar eclipse since 2015 and the first Blue Moon Blood Moon visible from the U.S. since 1866! - From Space.com

An event like this doesn't happen to often and there are some circles that follow this type of stuff and actually plan major events around astrological cycles. So even if you think it's a bunch of nonsense "they" don't and at the end of the day information is just a medium. It is up to you the perceiver to filter and discern what is true and false and even when showing is a lie there is a reason for the creation of it. you jsut have to peel back the layers

Yea man the moon has way more influence over our reality than most are aware of. Its crazy that people still argue this with all the science backing it.
And like you said we're composed mostly of water, usually around 70+%...so it's impossible for the moon to not have a huge effect on us.

Yea if you follow David Icke he claims it was put there to manipulate our perspective on reality. I'm not sure if I totally believe it but I'm not ruling it out either. There has to be a reason we haven't went back..

The moon last night here where I am was so bright it was as if the sun was out. It is winter here and very cold so instead of snow we have sheets of ice everywhere. With the moons reflection on the ice it was literally as if it was day time, even the shadows the moon cast were as if the sun was out, so beautiful. I looked directly at it last night and had to look away it was so bright.

It's a beautiful sight ain't it...I hope your friend is ok. I read that post that you did...

A mutual Facebook friend had messaged me that morning, I replied "I assume youre making sure I wasnt killed" He told me that even him had to cut him off due to his behavior.

The mutual Facebook friend happened to take screenshots of the original post and sent them to me...I hope hes ok too

All the combination of names for that moon sound like something straight out of Dragon Ball Z or something lol. I thought some form of the super moon is happening tonight.

😂😂 Yea I really didn't know either which was why I created this vlog.

Thanks for the information

gracias por la excelente información y mantenernos al tanto de todo yo ni enterado de la luna color sangre.

Great article pointing out the different types of moon possible.

I saw the excitement of people wanting to see the total lunar eclipse. I don't how well they did.

As you said if it's a sign of cosmos or something, well definitely not, these things happens all the time here and there and the possibility of total lunar eclipse had to happen sometime right and today is that day, and if you are an astrophysicist you can figure out why it's today and that's great of curious mind, you start to crack facts with concept.

The one thing that intrigues me is that during total solar eclipse the size and distance of the moon hiding the total sun is a huge coincidence, you make have something to talk about that like hohoo cosmic coincidence.

great post @alao the moon, in vedic astrology rules the habitual up and down thoughts we have all day as well as our emotional body too. very interesting times we are living through. Its a good idea to watch the moon cycle fluctuations for a lot of different areas including money...
