Wedding Ring Eclipse!

Tomorrow is a Lunar Eclipse.
A wedding ring eclipse, I should add.

No, it won’t look like that.  But this photo (credit: Cory Poole) showed up in my feed, and it gave me such HOPE… I had to share it.  Because anything having to do with the moon is symbolic of humanity… and a moon that turns blood red (Vengeance?  Judgment?) with a tiny portion of Light (those Raptured)… making for an engagement ring look (Coming Groom/Christ for His Bride/Church)?  That’s EXCITING!!!

Actually, here’s what it looks like, and the article about it:

LUNAR ECLIPSE THIS WEEK! Almost every American will be able to see it. On Thursday night, Aug. 27th, Earth’s shadow will engulf the Moon for an almost-total eclipse. At maximum, 96% of the lunar disk will be covered, producing a coppery-red Moon with a bright sliver clinging to its northern edge.

Observers in the eastern and central USA can see the whole thing, start to finish. Along the West Coast, the Moon rises around the time the partial phase begins, so the early stages play out low in the evening twilight. But maximum eclipse will be visible from Coast to Coast. (In Hawaii, the Moon rises already near maximum eclipse.)

Solar eclipses and lunar eclipses come in pairs. This week’s lunar eclipse bookends the total solar eclipse Europeans enjoyed on Aug. 12th. 

That’s a LOT of ’12’s, there.  It reaches max at 12:12, and the solar partner was on the 12th.  I also love that the date is ’27’… and that three percent will be out of the shadow.  Fun numbers!
