The moon will actually turn red today March 3

Excerpt
TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE: It's tonight--a total lunar eclipse!

The eclipse begins around 3:30 pm EST (2030 UT) when the Moon enters the outskirts of Earth's shadow. During this early stage, it's possible to look at the Moon and not realize anything is happening. Only a hint of shadow cast across the lunar terrain hints of what is to come: By 5:00 pm EST (2200 UT) the difference will be unmistakable -- at least half the Moon is in deep shadow -- and by 6:00 pm EST (2300 UT) the whole Moon will turn a delightful shade of sunset red: animation.


“The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD.” (Joel 2:31)

There are actually three Biblical prophecies that must be fulfilled before the beginning of the Day of the Lord, but this is the one that helps us pinpoint the beginning of the Day of the Lord in Revelation. (The other two are Malachi 4:5 and 2 Thessalonians 2:3.) Aside from Revelation, the only other time that a blood red moon is mentioned is in Acts 2 when Peter quotes Joel 2:31 after receiving the Holy Spirit at Pentecost. I believe that Peter’s strange reference to Joel’s prophecy was made simply to indicate the duration of the Church Age. It began with the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, and it will end just before the Day of the Lord begins after the sign of the blood red moon. Here is the fulfillment of Joel 2:31 and Isaiah 2 in Revelation:
