Traditional mythology regards eclipses as a bad omen, so, some rules have been established

The first lunar eclipse of 2022 occured on the intervening night of May 15 and 16. During the eclipse, the Moon witnessed scarlet colour, in stark contrast to its usual milky white appearance. It emitted a reddish hue just before the totality of the eclipse, which is why it is known as the “Blood Moon”.

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon, Earth, and Sun align, with the Moon passing through the shadow cast by the Earth. A total lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes through the darkest part of the Earth's shadow, known as the umbra, according to NASA.

The total lunar eclipse was not visible in India. It was seen in various parts of the world including South and North America, Antarctica, Europe, Africa, and the East Pacific.

While eclipses are a celestial event for skygazers, they are also associated with many myths. However, none of the dos and don'ts are scientifically supported.
