My First Blood Moon: A Moment of Wonder in Manila!

avatar

Hello Hive Family!

What an amazing life we live! How many of you here have noticed the red moon lately?

Honestly, this was my first time seeing this beautiful "blood moon" caused by a lunar eclipse. I wasn’t even aware it was happening. I was inside the house on March 3 around 7 PM when a friend told me about it. I said, "Oh, really?" and he encouraged me to step outside and see it for myself.

And wow — even though my day had been so stressful, seeing that moon instantly made me feel calm and reflective. I couldn't help but wonder: What is this all about? We rarely get to see such a beautiful red moon!

I admit I don't know much about the physical reasons behind this phenomenon. Actually, I didn't completely understand it even after my friend explained it to me, hehe. But for you, my readers, I asked the AI Qwen for a short and simple explanation, so here it is:

"During a lunar eclipse, Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon. Earth blocks most sunlight, but some light bends through our atmosphere. Our atmosphere filters out blue light and lets red light pass through — like a giant red filter! That's why the Moon glows red. 🌍🔴🌙"

What are your thoughts about the red moon? I would love to hear your ideas and insights. Please share them below!

P.S.: The next morning's cardio outfit was inspired by the blood moon. Can you guess the color? 😉 .......

I'm curious what phone you used in those snaps. And although I heard about blood moon, di ako nakalabas ng bahay coz naisip kong diko rin naman mapipicture-an coz my phone cam sucks hahaha. Saka tinamad akoooo, huhu. Those shots are really cool kitang kita jan sa inyo. Not so sure if nakita din sya sa lugar namin. Dapat talaga nicheck ko din eh 😅
