Lunar Eclipse 2025: The month of March is going to be very special for those interested in astronomy. A lunar eclipse is going to occur on Holi on March 14. On this day, an amazing sight will be seen in the sky. The moon will appear red in the sky which is called Blood Moon. There will be a total lunar eclipse, which will happen after three years. Earlier, there was a total lunar eclipse in the year 2022. The total lunar eclipse on March 14 can be seen in many areas of the world.

The total lunar eclipse on March 14 will be due to the moon passing through the shadow of the Earth. This eclipse will occur during the Worm Moon, which is the last full moon of winter. During this time there will also be a micro moon eclipse, that is, the moon will appear smaller than usual. It will last for about 65 minutes. During this time the moon will be farthest from the Earth. Because of this, it will appear smaller than the second full moon. This will be the first lunar eclipse of the year 2025.

A lunar eclipse is an astronomical event that occurs when the Sun, Earth, and Moon come in a straight line. Due to the Earth being between the Sun and the Moon, the shadow of the Earth falls on the Moon. This phenomenon is called lunar eclipse. The Earth revolves around the Sun. The Moon is a satellite, which revolves around the Earth. During this, when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, the sunlight is not able to reach the Moon. Due to this, the shadow of the Earth falls on the Moon. This astronomical phenomenon is called lunar eclipse. This astronomical phenomenon occurs on the full moon day. According to the Hindu calendar, the full moon falls on the last date of the Shukla Paksha of each month.

It takes only 29.5 days for the Moon to revolve around the Earth and complete a cycle from one full moon to the next. However, on average, only three lunar eclipses occur in a year. This is because the Moon's orbit around the Earth is not flat. It is at an angle of about five degrees. This means that the Moon often goes above or below the shadow of the Earth.

The first lunar eclipse of the year will begin on March 14 at 10:41 am and end at 2:18 pm. This will be a complete lunar eclipse. During this, the moon will be completely covered by the shadow of the Earth. This will make the moon appear in dark red. This phenomenon is called the blood moon.

How many types of lunar eclipses are there?

There are three types of lunar eclipses. It depends on how the Sun, Earth, and Moon are in a straight line. There is a partial lunar eclipse, a total lunar eclipse and a penumbral lunar eclipse. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the shadow of the earth falls on the entire surface of the moon.

During a partial lunar eclipse, only a part of the moon enters the shadow of the Earth. The shadow of the earth appears black on the part of the moon facing the earth. If the cut part is visible, then it depends on how the Sun, Earth and Moon are in a straight line. During a penumbral lunar eclipse, the lighter outer part of the shadow of the earth falls on the surface of the moon. It is a bit difficult to see this eclipse.

Will the lunar eclipse be visible in India?

The people of India will not be able to see the lunar eclipse on March 14. This is because it will be daytime in India at that time. This eclipse will be visible mainly in North and South America, Western Europe and Western Africa.
