The Blood Moon will open the eclipse corridor: when the lunar eclipse comes in September
In early September 2025, the Earth will become the scene of a unique astronomical phenomenon — a total lunar eclipse, opening a corridor of eclipses. At this point, the moon will turn an unusual red-orange color and will be visible to the naked eye. According to astrologers, this period brings with it an energy reset and opportunities for profound changes. For more information about the time, places of observation and the features of the nearest lunar eclipse, see the Izvestia article.
What is a lunar eclipse?
A lunar eclipse is one of the amazing celestial phenomena that occurs when the Earth is caught between the Sun and the moon. At this moment, our planet casts a shadow on the satellite, completely or partially hiding it from sunlight. Such an event is possible only during the full moon phase, when the moon is exactly opposite the Sun.
The shadow of the Earth consists of two parts: the darker central one is umber, and the lighter outer one is penumbra. Depending on how deeply the Moon sinks into these shadows, there are three types of lunar eclipses: total, partial and penumbral. During a total eclipse, the satellite completely disappears into the depths of the earth's shadow, acquiring a mysterious reddish hue, and during a partial eclipse, only part of the lunar disk is covered with shadow. A penumbral eclipse is the weakest of all, when the moon dims only slightly as it passes through the penumbra.
The duration of a total eclipse is usually from 30 to 60 minutes, and the phenomenon as a whole is several hours. Lunar eclipses do not occur at every full moon due to the inclination of the Moon's orbit about 5 degrees to the plane of the Earth's orbit. The Earth's satellite most often passes just above or below the shadow cone, and no eclipse occurs. On average, a total lunar eclipse can be observed approximately once every 2.5 years anywhere in the world.
Such a natural phenomenon does not pose a danger to observers, but it always attracts attention with its beauty and cosmic drama. A scientific explanation of eclipses helps to understand the relative positions and movements of the Earth, Moon, and Sun.
Lunar eclipse in September 2025: where and when to observe
The total lunar eclipse on September 7, 2025, will be one of the largest astronomical events of the year and will be visible in a significant part of the globe. This phenomenon will begin at 18:28 Moscow time and last until 23:55.
The most spectacular phase, the total eclipse, when the Moon completely disappears into the Earth's shadow and turns red, will last about 1 hour and 22 minutes, from 20:30 to 21:52 Moscow time. At this time, the moon will be visible above the horizon in most regions of Russia, Central and South Asia, as well as Australia and East Africa.
The total duration of the event will be about 5 hours and 27 minutes. The initial phase of the penumbral eclipse starts at 18:28, then at 19:27 the Moon enters a partial shadow, and full immersion in the central shadow of the Earth begins at 20:30 and lasts for more than an hour until 21:52. Then the Moon gradually comes out of the shadow, completing the eclipse by 23:55.
The satellite acquires an unusual "bloody" hue due to the physical effect. The thing is that during a total eclipse, sunlight passes through the Earth's atmosphere, where short-wavelength blue and green colors are scattered, and long-wavelength red light is refracted and reaches the Moon. It is this reddish light that gives the satellite its mysterious appearance, which is called the "Blood Moon."
The eclipse of September 7, 2025 is accompanied by the Moon's close passage to perigee, the closest point in its orbit to Earth, which makes the satellite slightly larger than usual, but without the effect of a supermoon. The height of the Moon above the horizon in the central regions of Russia at the time of the maximum will be about 15 degrees, which provides quite comfortable conditions for observation with the naked eye.
The impact of a lunar eclipse on humans
According to astrologers, during a lunar eclipse, a person's psychological and emotional sensitivity increases. The moon is responsible for the inner world of feelings, emotions and subconscious processes, and its darkening can activate deep experiences, exacerbate emotional reactions and cause a state of anxiety, anxiety, apathy or even irritation. People become more vulnerable, prone to making rash decisions or outbursts of negative emotions.
The eclipse is especially strongly influenced by those who are prone to inner feelings and emotional instability, as well as representatives of zodiac signs exposed to the sensitive energy of this period, such as Pisces, Virgo, Gemini and Sagittarius. At this time, memories, nostalgia, feelings of unresolved conflicts or inner dissatisfaction may become more acute.
During a lunar eclipse, it is recommended to think carefully about your actions and be especially careful about important decisions. During such periods, the risk of spontaneous mistakes increases, and emotional instability can lead to conflicts or even injury if internal balance is not maintained.
From a scientific point of view, the direct impact of eclipses on human health and destiny has not been proven. However, the psychological and emotional effect of observing rare cosmic events and accompanying changes in well-being is observed in many.
What can and cannot be done during the 2025 eclipse corridor
The astrological event of September 7, 2025 marks the beginning of the eclipse corridor, a period during which two consecutive eclipses will occur: a total lunar eclipse on September 7 and a partial solar eclipse on September 21. This corridor will last more than two weeks and will become an important astronomical event that affects not only observers, but also the energy of the period.
From an astrological point of view, the impact of these cosmic events often stretches for several weeks before and after the eclipses themselves, sometimes reaching a duration of up to several months. This time is considered energetically powerful and requires special attention to your actions.
In the first two days before the eclipses and throughout the corridor itself, it is not recommended to start new projects, move to a new job, sign contracts, move or get married. Any significant changes and initiatives during this period can lead to unpredictable consequences, mistakes, or protracted obstacles. It is necessary to avoid making important decisions under the pressure of emotions and haste. The energy of the eclipse corridor can exacerbate inner feelings, which often leads to ill-considered actions and conflicts. The best time to plan is after the end of the corridor.
Instead of new beginnings during this period, it is recommended to focus on completing old cases, putting things in order in the personal and work spheres, as well as on self-knowledge and spiritual practices. Meditation, breathing exercises, and being attentive to your emotional state will help you maintain inner balance.
In the eclipse corridor, it is useful to pay attention to relationships with loved ones, forgiveness, and the release of accumulated emotions. The positive internal changes initiated during this period will lay the foundation for future success. It is especially important to maintain a healthy sleep, nutrition and rest regime in order to maintain physical and emotional stability.
In general, the eclipse period in 2025 is a time of change and opportunity, when you can let go of the old, rethink important aspects of life and prepare for new stages. The main thing is to keep inner peace and not give in to excessive stress.
