The blue/ blood/ eclipse full moon…The full moon went through a full eclipse this time
The blue/ blood/ eclipse full moon… The full moon went through a full eclipse this time around which only happens every 6months to a year… Blood moon… it went RED! And it looked amazing!!! I was totally Mesmerised by it!!! The blue moon part… only the northern hemisphere gets to see this full moon blue so we missed out in Melbourne. Why do they call it a blue moon? “The suggestion has been made that the term “blue moon” for “intercalary month” arose by folk etymology, the “blue” replacing the no-longer-understood belewe, ‘to betray’. The original meaning would then have been “betrayer moon”, referring to a full moon that would “normally” (in years without an intercalary month) be the full moon of spring, while in an intercalary year, it was “traitorous” in the sense that people would have had to continue fasting for another month in accordance with the season of Lent.[8][9] The earliest recorded English usage of the term blue moon is found in an anti-clerical pamphlet (attacking the Roman clergy, and cardinal Thomas Wolsey in particular) by two converted Greenwich friars, William Roy and Jerome Barlow, published in 1528 under the title Rede me and be nott wrothe, for I say no thynge but trothe. “ -- source link
