The Blood Moon of 11/7/2022


It's that time again Ancient Indians (Maroons), the signs of the heavens are once again speaking to us!


Remember that in many cultures throughout history, the sun and moon were seen as entities of supreme importance, crucial to their very existence. They were regularly revered for their vital roles in people's daily lives. Various beliefs and myths have accumulated throughout the ages. Different civilizations had different beliefs about lunar eclipses. The Norse, for instance, believed that either a solar or lunar eclipse could be a “sign of Ragnarok.” For the Ojibwe tribe of the Great Lakes, the onset of a total eclipse represented an extinguished sun. To prevent permanent darkness, they preceded to fire flaming arrows at the darkened sun in an attempt to rekindle it. The Native American Hupa and Luiseño tribes from California believed that the moon was wounded or ill. After the eclipse, the moon would then need healing, either by the moon’s wives or by tribesmen. The Luiseño, for example, would sing and chant healing songs toward the darkened moon.



In Islamic cultures, eclipses tend to be interpreted without superstition. In Islam, the sun and moon represent deep respect for Allah, so during an eclipse special prayers are chanted including a Salat-al-khusuf, a “prayer on a lunar eclipse”. It both asks Allah’s forgiveness and reaffirms Allah’s greatness. Some Hindu folktales interpret lunar eclipses as the result of the demon Rahu drinking the elixir of immortality. Twin deities the sun and moon promptly decapitate Rahu, but having consumed the elixir, Rahu’s head remains immortal. Seeking revenge, Rahu’s head chases the sun and moon to devour them. If he catches them we have an eclipse – Rahu swallows the moon, which reappears out of his severed neck.


The ancient Inca people interpreted the deep red coloring as a celestial ‘jaguar’ swallowing the moon. They believed that the jaguar might then turn its attention to Earth, so the people would shout, shake their spears and make their dogs bark and howl, hoping to make enough noise to drive the jaguar away. In Mayan legends from central Mexico, the monsters responsible for devouring the sun during an eclipse are described as "star demons," which were often portrayed as giant snakes or insects. Mayan records make clear that the "star demons" were in fact the other stars, such as Venus or Mercury, which could briefly become visible in the darkened daytime sky. The Lacandón, a people whose descendants live in the Mexican state of Chiapas, believed that eclipses would cause the earth to split, releasing jaguars that would devour people and lay waste to the land.


For many people in India, a lunar eclipse bears ill fortune as they prescribed to the idea of an eclipse being the byproduct of Rahu swallowing the sun or moon. Among the Batammaliba people of Togo and Benin, we are told that lunar eclipses are a time of conflict between the sun and the moon, and that humans must encourage the pair to resolve their differences by settling our own disputes on Earth.


The ancient Babylonian civilization was also fascinated with the heavens. Their complex school of astrology looked to interpret the will of the gods by understanding the clockwork of the universe. Their level of astronomical knowledge and astrological tradition had regarded eclipses as celestial omens. Priests believed the timing of an eclipse could even foretell the fate of kings.


Whether historically or mythological, eclipses have often been associated with “harbinger prophecy” and deemed as representations of bad omen; sparks of change, or transitions. Just as in ancient times, modern recognition of these ancient traditional attributes has led to many rituals and practices surrounding eclipses. Urban shamanism and its adherents utilize such celestial events as an eclipse to influence the affairs of their lives by harnessing the energy created by such events. The idea of speeding up manifestation powers and creating change is an ancient practice that is utilized by Moorish Magi. Since eclipses can also signify endings, many seek to use the celestial phenomenon to release themselves from outgrown situations or institute new paradigms or ideas.


Each eclipse was judged according to the position of other stars and planets (particularly Jupiter), and how much of the moon was darkened. Tomorrow’s celestial event on November 8, 2022, features a “Blood Moon” Lunar Eclipse to rise on ‘Election Day’ over the United States – the last total Lunar Eclipse until March 2025. On Tuesday overnight, the sun, Earth, and moon will align so that the Earth’s shadow covers the moon. The total phase of the eclipse — the true star of the show — won't begin until 2:16 a.m. That phase is called totality, when the moon enters the darkest part of Earth's shadow and shines a deep blood-red hue.


This “Blood Moon” coincides with the first full moon of November which is called the “beaver moon” in honor of the semiaquatic rodents. This is the time of year when beavers begin to take shelter after storing their food for the winter, according to The Old Farmer's Almanac. The moon will be at its brightest at 6:02 a.m.


This cosmic phenomenon that will paint the lunar eclipse red on ‘Election Day’ is the same force that lights up our sunsets here on Earth and makes our daytime sky blue. This "Blood Moon" will be another ominous sign, an omen of the divine crying out to its mages. This harbinger of conflict shall foretell of changes yet to come. Whether it's rebellion or revelations; internal struggle or outward conflictions; economic regression or spiritual evolution? - It's all been decreed by the great divine plan of the ages.


Historical scholars record Total lunar eclipses (Blood Moons) occupying the skies above Jerusalem five months apart on May 5 and October 29 in the year 68 AD. A partial solar eclipse was also seen in Rome and Jerusalem a year earlier on the night of May 31 in 67 AD. The day before, stones weighing a talent pelted Jerusalem. Within months, the second and third, and fourth bowls of God's wrath were poured out on the apostate city. In addition to the aforementioned Blood Moons and Solar Eclipses, historians record the appearance of armies of angels, a sword-like star, a heifer giving birth to a lamb, and the sound of superhuman voices in Jerusalem before its destruction by the Romans in 70 AD.


According to some Christians, the Bible predicts that a series of blood moons which will herald the end of the world. The blood moon prophecies are said to derive from prophecies in the Bible which, according to Christian preachers John Hagee and Mark Biltz, that a tetrad (a series of four consecutive lunar eclipses—all total and coinciding on Jewish holidays—with six full moons in between, and no intervening partial lunar eclipses) which began with the April 2014 lunar eclipse is the beginning of the end times as described in the Bible in the Book of Joel, Acts 2:20, and Revelation 6:12.


Astronomy teaches us that tetrads are not particularly rare, with eight scheduled to occur between 2015 and 2100. Nor is it unusual for lunar eclipses to fall on a Jewish festival since the Jewish calendar is a lunar calendar and Passover is always a full moon.


The claim of a blood moon is a sign of the beginning of the end times originates in the Book of Joel, where it is written: "And also on the servants and on the handmaids in those days will I pour out My Spirit. And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes.”


This prophecy was repeated by Peter during Pentecost, as stated in Acts. The blood moon also is prophesied in the Book of Revelation chapter 6 verses 11–13, where verse 12 states, "And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood."


Many prophets have prophesied that the appearance of "Blood Moons" signifies extraordinary and great events to come. There are also many Biblical scholars who firmly suggest that the appearance of blood moons is the fulfillment of the prophecy in the Book of Joel.


“The great and terrible day” mentioned in the prophecy in the Book of Joel refers to the great disasters with frequent occurrences of earthquakes, famines, plagues, and floods which highlight the world's situation of turmoil and constant change. The signs of the last days prophesied in the Bible have appeared one by one, and the great disasters have come down.


All manner of disasters will befall, one after another; all nations and places will experience calamities: Plague, famine, flood, drought, and earthquakes are everywhere. And tomorrow's "Blood Moon" is yet another omen declaring this era of change. In astrology, full moons mark the most climactic moment in the monthly lunar cycle as it is when the sun and moon oppose each other in the zodiac. This November 8th eclipse indeed represents an ominous sign of change upon us.
