Total Lunar Eclipse – April 15, 2014

10 April 2014

 - On Tuesday April 15, we will have a Full Moon which is a Total Lunar Eclipse (TLE). It will occur at 25 degrees of Aries (Sun) / 25 degrees of Libra (Moon).

During a Total Lunar Eclipse, the Earth’s shadow falls upon the Moon, and as this occurs the Moon’s color may change to a striking red. This is why some call the TLE a ‘blood moon.’ This does not mean it’s ominous, and it is not apocalyptic, as many have been speculating on the internet.
