Astrologers report a unique lunar eclipse. Astrologers report a unique lunar eclipse Red Moon
On January 31, 2018, residents of Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Canada and some other countries will be able to witness a rather rare cosmic phenomenon - the Moon in the sky will be covered by the shadow of the Earth and the night star will turn red. The January 2018 Blood Moon will be the first lunar eclipse of 2018.
The Blood Moon on January 31, 2018 will be visible in Europe, North America and parts of Asia. The color and saturation of the red hue that the Earth's satellite will turn into will depend on many factors - cloudiness, the amount of dust and smog in the atmosphere, and even the air temperature.
The entire cycle of the January lunar eclipse will take about five hours. In Moscow, the maximum phase of the eclipse will be observed at 16:30. At this time it will already be quite dark and it will be possible to see with the naked eye how the Moon will gradually appear in the shadow of the Earth.
The eclipse process will begin during daylight hours, at 13:51 Moscow time, and will end at 19:08.
The lunar eclipse on January 31, 2018 will be a so-called “blood eclipse” or “blood moon.” While the Earth's shadow will cover the full Moon, the illuminated part of the Earth's satellite will have a reddish tint. At the moment of the eclipse, the Earth, Moon and Sun will stand in one row.
Advice from astrologers during the blood moon: what to watch out for
Just a hundred years ago, our ancestors believed that the Blood Moon was a harbinger of wars, famines and various types of natural disasters. Nowadays, astrologers believe that a lunar eclipse also has a positive impact on our lives - at this time it is worth making a wish and it will definitely come true.
Also, a lunar eclipse is a favorable time for getting rid of smoking, alcohol or gaming addiction. If you do not get rid of bad habits during the eclipse, then it will be difficult to do this in the coming year.
- Go on long journeys.
- Get behind the wheel of a car.
- Make large purchases.
- Abuse alcohol.
- Visit large crowds of people.
The influence of the blood moon, according to astrologers, begins to be felt three days before the eclipse and continues for another three days after. During this period, you should show calm and prudence. Sensitive people may experience emotional instability, irritability, and attacks of unmotivated aggression.
Today, Wednesday, January 31, 2018, the inhabitants of the Earth will witness a unique coincidence of astronomical phenomena - a Supermoon, a total lunar eclipse and a Blue Moon. Mystics see a lot of strong energy in this day, and spectacle lovers are looking forward to an event that promises to be especially colorful.
The full moon on January 31 was named a blue moon because it will be the second one this month, the site writes. The lunar month turned out to be shorter than the calendar month, and therefore the full moon fell on January 2 and 31, respectively. February is the darkest month of the year, because we will never see the full moon in the sky.
The full moon on January 31 is called the Supermoon - at this time the Earth's satellite approaches it at the shortest possible distance, and therefore appears simply huge in the sky. Visually, the disc increases in size by 10-15%. Astronomers do not see anything special in the phenomenon, but for romantics this time is more suitable than ever for dreams and observations of the sky.
Simultaneously with the full moon, a total eclipse of the moon awaits us - due to falling into the Earth's shadow, the satellite will take on a bloody hue, so lovers of mysticism can simply squeal with delight.
The lunar eclipse in January 2018 will be visible to residents of all of Russia, as well as adjacent countries - Ukraine, Belarus, Moldova, and the Baltic states. In addition, residents of the western part of North America, Canada, Asian countries, Hawaii, and Alaska can follow him. But residents of South America and Africa will find themselves without this spectacle.
If we talk about time, the eclipse will be clearly visible for a short period of time - from sunset to 19.00. In more detail, the Moon will begin to enter the shadow of the earth at lunchtime, and therefore daylight hours will prevent us from fully enjoying the phenomenon.
On January 31 at 13:49 Moscow time, the Moon will touch the earth's penumbra - at this time a penumbral eclipse will begin. It is poorly visible to the naked eye, but as the Moon approaches the edge of the Earth's shadow it will become increasingly noticeable. At 14:48 the Moon will begin to sink into the Earth's shadow. It will be completely submerged by 15:51. The maximum phase of the eclipse will occur at 16:29, when the Moon will be near the center of the Earth's shadow. In total, the Moon will spend more than an hour in the Earth's shadow.
The exit from the earth's shadow will begin at 17:08. At this time, the Moon will rise above the horizon and acquire a reddish-brown, “bloody” hue. The Moon will finally emerge from the shadows in two hours - at 19:09.
For those who, for objective reasons, do not have time to watch the spectacle in the sky, the broadcast can be seen on the Internet - NASA specialists will observe the eclipse through special telescopes and promise to broadcast it to residents of the entire planet.
The influence of the moon on humans has long been proven by scientists from various fields. As you know, during Full Moons and eclipses it intensifies significantly, and therefore doctors on this day urge everyone to be as careful as possible.
Those who drive or do heavy physical work should be especially careful - the full moon can affect well-being, aggravate chronic diseases and lead to loss of mental balance.
On this day, it is recommended to put off all important matters and if you cannot fully rest, take care of your routine, routine, and little things. Don’t sort things out and don’t make serious decisions, because you may later regret what you did under the influence of a mystical and rather energetically difficult day.
Try not to drink alcohol or eat heavy food - it is best to spend the day in lightness and not succumb to mood swings.
Many may be bothered by headaches, heaviness, weakness and powerlessness - do not despair, the influence of the full moon will decrease tomorrow and disappear completely in a few days. If you can provoke the body and go to sleep, occupy yourself with something not too important and serious, devote time to household chores and completing small errands at work.
Energy flows out of you. Try to find a worthy use for it. It is advisable to use its power for creation, because otherwise it will take a long time to eliminate the consequences.
Today will bring you a small victory, but it can also be a moment of well-deserved triumph. If this does not happen, then perhaps it is worth considering whether something needs to be changed.
Twins
Today will be an extremely successful day for you in terms of acquiring useful contacts. They may not seem so at first glance, but in the future they will certainly justify themselves.
Today you have to work a lot with your tongue and ears. By the evening you will not be able to remember anything you heard, if you do not take notes, you will have to talk about too much.
Today your imagination will run a little. Not quite to the point of pink elephants, but decent. In this regard, there is no need to convince anyone of anything today. It is quite possible that you yourself are mistaken.
The taller you are, the more often you will have to bow when entering doors. It’s worth remembering this as you strive to grow more and more. Are you moving too fast?
Personal relationships are the corner that will bring joy to your heart. Today you will have to spend a lot of energy maintaining the status quo. The less you care about it now, the more work it will cost you later.
Scorpion
If you are asked “How are you?”, this does not mean that you need to immediately and with all detail start telling how. Watch yourself, today you may be overly verbose.
The ultimate goal that you have set for yourself is much more significant than all the circumstances that interfere with its achievement that stand in your way. Don't let them stop you.
You are so deep in the search for perfection that you may find yourself alone. No one is perfect enough to meet your needs. Maybe we should reconsider them a little?
Today you may not have a very clear idea of why you are actually here and what they want from you. Don't hesitate and ask questions. You'll understand later.
Today you will be like a porcelain vase - thin, graceful and very fragile. Any situation fraught with conflict should be avoided.

A "Blood Moon" appears when the Earth's satellite goes through an eclipse phase. Although the phenomenon is not of particular astronomical significance, the appearance in the sky is striking - the usually white Moon turns red or brick brown.
The next blood moon will appear during a total lunar eclipse on January 31, which will be visible in North America, Australia, the Pacific and Asia.
When is the next lunar eclipse?
The last lunar eclipse (partial eclipse) occurred on August 7, 2017. NASA has compiled a list of all lunar eclipses until 2100, and here are a few events that lie ahead:
January 31, 2018: total eclipse. It will be visible in Asia, Australia, the Pacific Ocean, and western North America. In the central part of Russia it will be only partially visible.
July 27, 2018: total eclipse. Will be visible in South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, Australia.
January 19, 2019: total eclipse. Will be visible in North and South America, Europe and Africa.
July 16, 2019: partial eclipse. Will be visible in South America, Europe, Asia, Australia.
Why does the moon turn red?
The moon revolves around the Earth, and the Earth revolves around the Sun. The Moon takes about 27 days to orbit the Earth and goes through regular phases on a 29.5-day cycle. The difference between these two cycles is due to the position of the Sun, Earth and Moon relative to each other, which is constantly changing.
Lunar eclipses can only occur during full moons, when the Sun fully illuminates the surface. Typically, the full Moon does not create eclipses because it rotates in a slightly different plane than the Earth and Sun. However, when the planes align, the Earth passes between the Moon and the Sun and blocks the sunlight, creating an eclipse.
If the Earth partially obscures the Sun and the darkest part of its shadow falls on the surface of the Moon, the phenomenon is called a partial eclipse. You will see a shadow that “bites off” part of the satellite. Sometimes the Moon passes through the lighter part of the Earth's shadow, causing a penumbral eclipse. Only experienced sky watchers will notice the difference, as the Moon darkens just a tiny bit.
During a total eclipse, however, something spectacular happens. The Moon is completely in the Earth's shadow, but sunlight scattered in the Earth's atmosphere still reaches the Moon's surface. Since the rays of the red spectrum are the worst scattered, the Moon looks bloody.
How red the Moon becomes depends on pollution, cloud cover or debris in the atmosphere. For example, if an eclipse occurs shortly after a volcanic eruption, particles in the atmosphere can make the Moon appear darker than usual.
The Blood Moon on January 31, 2018 will be visible in Europe, North America and parts of Asia. The color and saturation of the red hue in which the Earth's satellite will be painted will depend on many factors - cloudiness, the amount of dust and smog in the atmosphere, and even on the air temperature.
