This total eclipse at midnight on December 20/21 visible for much of America will have a Seventy-two minute long period of totality on the longest night of the year. A total lunar eclipse has not happenned on the winter solstice since 1638 ce. This is the full moon of the Hebrew month of Tevet.This month in the ancient Hebrew wisdom corresponds to the organ of the liver(twelve months=twelve meridian systems)whose function is to purify and is associated with the Nachash/serpent. This month is also related to the tribe of Dan whose way/Derek is like a serpent according to Torah.This eclipse occurs on a Tuesday which is the Hebrew Yom haShleishi , the third day under guardianship of the red planet Meadim/Mars. In fact the Hebrew legends/aggadah tell us that the cold nature of the levanah/moon is warmed by the red glow of the planetary chief meadim/mars. As the reflective illusory white light of the moon is obscured by the body of the Earth so the moon takes on the red glow which is really her own. We pray that the passionate dance between the soul of Earth who is known as the Avvenyu/water serpent among the Pueblos Indians, and the sky dragon, source of all movement, called the Teli in the Hebrew wisdom, helps awaken humanity to the flood of Chesed/lovingkindness.(For those into Hebrew gematria/number knowledge we are in the 72nd year of the 58th Hebrew century(5771). 72= Chesed/love and 58 = both both Noach, from the first flood, and Chen=grace.) Both Zohar and the Qumran scrolls predict a second flood of mighty "upper waters" to flood and purify the entire Earth with Chesed.
