  1. There's A Blood Red Moon About to Appear-- March 3, 2026 The total lunar eclipse on March 3 will be the last until New Year's Eve 2028 https://www.space.com/stargazing/lunar-eclipses/the-total-lunar-eclipse-on-march-3-will-be-the-last-until-new-years-eve-2028 What time is the blood moon total lunar eclipse on March 3? News By Daisy Dobrijevic published 3 hours ago A total lunar eclipse will turn the moon blood red for billions across North America, Australia and East Asia. https://www.space.com/stargazing/lunar-eclipses/what-time-is-the-blood-moon-total-lunar-eclipse-on-march-3 ___________________________________________________________ I asked the internet: Can you see the Lunar Eclipse from Washington DC? Yes, you can see the total lunar eclipse ("blood moon") from Washington, D.C., early in the morning on Tuesday, March 3, 2026. The eclipse will be visible as the moon sets in the west, with maximum totality occurring around 6:04 a.m. ET. A clear, unobstructed view of the western horizon is required. Secret DC +3 Key 2026 Eclipse Viewing Details: Date: Tuesday, March 3, 2026. Best Time: Totality (when the moon turns red) begins around 6:04 a.m. ET. ... ***** My Note: Although I am still in the learning phase when it comes to Astronomy, this is always fascinating for me to be able to understand ancient script. From that perspective I have come to learn that it is always a scientific fact that after a solar Eclipse there will always be a lunar eclipse that follows it. Usually, the cycle will start with a solar alignment then afterwards a lunar alignment and the terminology varies as to what kind of eclipse occurs. One prophet wrote it in this way; [12] 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; ... REVELATION 6:12. So no matter, thousands of years ago, or even today, Astronomy becomes an exact method in order to determine dates and times and to confirm and mark history. Always after 'the sun becomes 'as black as sackcloth' meaning, some type of a Solar Eclipse, then exactly 14 days later, the moon will become 'as blood' meaning, some type of a lunar eclipse. Therefore, 14 days before this lunar eclipse, and on this past February 17, 2026, there was a Solar Eclipse. This type of eclipse would be an annular one, meaning, it appeared to have a ring around the sun. This Solar Eclipse was not visible from America, however, it was a very rare event. It was only reached totality at the bottom of the earth! It was viewable as a partial eclipse, I think, from the southern parts of our planet in countries such as South Africa and Australia. And so, within the past 14 days as the the two spheres moved, our earth and the moon, we are now able to view the lunar eclipse from America. So then, the moon, moved from being directly in between the sun and the earth to form a solar eclipse in the 'new moon' phase and then in 14 days, it moved to the back of our earth and now, our earth is in between the sun and the moon and will form 'a lunar eclipse'. How fascinating! So then, because of the alignment of the solar eclipse, the alignment can still hold for 14 days and forms a lunar eclipse as the moon moves behind the earth and due to a shadow, the moon appears to be 'blood red'. I recall that at some rare times, this alignment can still hold even longer as the moon continues to move around the earth, although rare and perhaps may even form another kind of eclipse again. Again, though, I am still in the learning phase and astronomy is a challenge for me. Nevertheless, the Biblical script becomes my anchor and has helped me to have a better understanding of time and history and helps me to better understand my secular education. But here would be another amazing event that has captured this incredible celestial event. On the day of the Annular Solar Eclipse, a great man's spirit was laid to rest!

  2. I recently watched the Oscar-nominated movie, "SINNERS" starring Michael B. Jordan, and it was certainly a different take on vampire horror movies with a black theme. The producers did a very good job of creating the film's dark, eerie atmosphere, as well as recreating the rural zeitgeist of black America back during the 1930s. The authentic characterizations of the cast members also contributed to the over all effect. I had to watch it 3 times to get the full complexity of the plot, but it was well worth it, and when it comes to horror movies, I would certainly recommend "SINNERS" as an intense, gripping example of this genre. The blues-themed musical sound track was also noteworthy.
  3. Actually I somewhat prefer that Talarico won. All of this crap with Trump is significantly a White Male Racist problem. Send in a White Male Democrat to cope with it.
  4. I see that I have mellowed a bit, which is a a good IMHO.
  5. Interesting. Can't help but wonder if any of this astrological activity coincides with Israel and America's violent assault on Iran and what it portends for the future of the great American Empire and the orange tyrant who has crowned himself king of it.
