In preparing for our next full-moon ceremony, a friend sent me this link from NASA.
In short, we're due for a total eclipse during the full moon.
Previous red full moon with a hint of turquoise
On Wednesday evening, February 20th, the full Moon over the Americas will turn a delightful shade of red and possibly turquoise, too. It's a total lunar eclipse—the last one until Dec. 2010.
The Sun goes down. The Moon comes up. You go out and look at the sky. Observing the eclipse is that easy. Maximum eclipse, and maximum beauty, occurs at 10:26 pm EST (7:26 pm PST).
Should be fun to watch!
