STORY

Blood Moons 2025—He was an old pirate, a weathered man of the sea, sailing solo on a sloop that creaked with the memories of a thousand storms. Swells rolled beneath his vessel in rhythmic intervals, their direction pointing at far-off storms or approaching gales. The man trusted no compass nor sextant to guide him, but only the heavens above and the waves beneath his feet. By day, the color of clouds hinted at rain or days of calm. By night, he plotted his course by the constellations, each star a guide overlaid on imaginary lines drawn from memory.

But now, something had appeared in the sky: a light—too brilliant for a star and out of place for any planet he’d ever mapped. It had first appeared in the northern sky weeks earlier. At first, he’d wondered how he’d missed such a light and asked himself if it might be a shooting star stuck in its orbit. To find a new object above on a ball so small left him unnerved. Stars and planets appeared and moved with formal regularity. If you could not count on the sky to keep its elements fixed in place, how was he to know which way to steer?

With his latitude and longitude noted, the time during the watch added, he considered the other omens he’d seen. Blood moons, their crimson hue staining the night. He recalled how, as a child, when he had seen his first blood moon, terror had filled his heart. Now, only idle curiosity remained. The natives of Isla Luminara spoke of a time when the heavens roiled in chaos and would do so again. They whispered of a sun so blackened and the world swallowed in darkness.

The old pirate found himself adrift—not on the sea. The waves and winds he could prepare for. But this new and distant light left him concerned. Land or sea, in port or under sail—this was his dilemma. What choice should he make? What course to take?

“Perhaps,” he thought aloud, “I should pull out the book and see if there are hints of what’s coming.” But it had been so long since he’d opened the ancient text, he wondered if he could even locate it among the clutter of his belongings stored in the lockers. He resolved to wait one more night to see if the light remained as brilliant. If so, then he’d hunt for his Bible.

2025: Blood Moons 2025 and Signs in the Heavens

The year 2025 presents extraordinary celestial events—two Blood Moons 2025 and two solar eclipses—that align with significant dates on the Jewish and Christian calendars.

These events echo the prophetic imagery found in Scripture, pointing to themes of judgment, redemption, and divine sovereignty.

Biblical Context of Blood Moons 2025

Jesus foretold in Matthew 24:29:

“Immediately after the distress of those days:
‘The sun will be darkened,
and the moon will not give its light;
the stars will fall from the sky,
and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’”

Similarly, God declared in Joel 2:30-31:

“I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth,
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
The sun will be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood
before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.”

These verses align with the events described in Revelation 6:12-14:

“The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, and the stars in the sky fell to earth…”

The Four Eclipses in 2025

1. March 14, 2025 – Total Lunar Eclipse:
   The first Blood Moon 2025 occurs during Purim, which begins at sundown on March 13 and continues through March 14. Purim commemorates the deliverance of the Jewish people from Haman’s plot to destroy them (Esther 9:24-25). The eclipse will be visible across the Americas, Europe, Africa, and parts of Asia, symbolizing divine intervention and deliverance.
2. March 29, 2025 – Partial Solar Eclipse:
   A partial solar eclipse aligns with the anniversary of Israel’s Operation Defensive Shield, launched on this day in 2002 in response to the Second Intifada. This eclipse will be visible in Europe, parts of Asia, and North America, highlighting God’s sovereignty over human history.
3. September 7, 2025 – Total Lunar Eclipse:
   The second Blood Moon 2025 falls on the anniversary of Jesus’s rejection in Nazareth, where He declared Himself the fulfillment of Isaiah’s prophecy (Luke 4:16-30). This eclipse, visible across Europe, Asia, Australia, Africa, and parts of North America, reflects the prophetic imagery of darkness and judgment.
4. September 18, 2025 – Partial Solar Eclipse:
   This eclipse occurs at the end of the Jewish agricultural and spiritual harvest season, a time of reflection and preparation for the High Holy Days. The shofar blast symbolizes a divine awakening, echoing Jesus’s words in Matthew 24:31.

“And he will send out his angels…

with a loud trumpet call…

and they will gather his elect… from the four winds…”

As prophesied in Luke 21:25-26:

“There will be signs in the sun, moon, and stars…for the heavenly bodies will be shaken.”

What These Events May Mean for Us Today

These celestial events invite us to reflect on the coming of Jesus. The alignment of these astronomical occurrences with sacred calendars underscores the urgency of spiritual preparedness. Jesus warned we are to watch and be ready. Perhaps these four “signs in the heavens” will spur us to know Him more.

The old man steadied himself on the deck as the small, brilliant light he had watched for weeks began to expand, piercing the heavens with unimaginable radiance. As the light outshone every star, the constellations he had trusted for years faded into obscurity. Only blinding brilliance remained.

The sea stilled beneath him, its surface shimmering like glass. Suddenly, the heavens split with a resounding trumpet blast, and the light revealed its source—a figure clothed in white, His face shining with the brilliance of the sun and His eyes blazing like fire.

Blinded, the old man fell to his knees, never to be found aboard his vessel again.
