    misconception about the moon’s phases. The typical reason given for the cause of the moon phases is that we are observing the shadow of the Earth on the Moon! But it’s not true. When the Moon goes through the shadow of the Earth, we obtain a lunar eclipse. The reality is that the moon crosses through the Earth’s shadow only occasionally, so that can’t be the reason of moon’s phases.

    repetitive lives for no apparent reason. At the end of the day, it makes no difference how much good or bad we do in the world. This is the ignorant view of the world that fails to see the perfect harmony in which we all live our lives. The redundant cycles that we try so hard to get away from are part of our overarching connectedness as humans. As parts of a whole, all of us have a role to play in making our lives better for ourselves and others. Our role is the very meaning of life, and we should embrace

    In the article Lunar Eclipses: What are They & When is the Next One, Robert Roy Britt explains the causation and the nature of these celestial bodies. A lunar eclipse appears when the Earth is directly between the moon and the sun. Appearing only on a night of a full moon, a lunar eclipse is formed when the Earth blocks any direct sunlight from reaching the moon.
