Blood moon inspires earring craft at North Cobb Regional Library

Color drawing of a blood moon

By Kelly Johnson

Amid a number of children events in March at North Cobb Regional Library, such as Women’s History Month Storytime & Craft and Let’s Go Camping: Interactive Theatre, there is an adult event which preludes the arrival of spring later in the month. It is Moon Earrings, occurring Tuesday, March 3rd at 6:00 PM.

An Arts and Craft event, Moon Earrings celebrates the first lunar eclipse of 2026, from March 2nd to the 3rd. This celestial phenomenon occurs when the moon orbits through Earth’s shadow, or when Earth is between the sun and moon. It is also called a blood moon, but only during phases when Earth’s sky acts as a prism and diffuses sunlight. This diffusion, due to the Rayleigh scattering effect, casts the longer wavelengths of red, orange, and yellow upon the moon in some combination so as to affect the “bloodiness” of the moon.

While there are those who may see a blood moon through the lens of Revelation 6:12, it is generally recognized the world-over as a signal for personal growth and spiritual alignment. Moreover, as an envoy for the forthcoming Spring Equinox, a blood moon reflects Earth’s “rebirth” or shift from its Winter Solstice phase just as the moon itself slides out from Earth’s shadow. A blood moon is also thought to enhance intuition and the feminine constitution within the natural world, including people, both men and women. Some traditions even believe a blood moon thins the barrier between the physical and spiritual realms.

What attribute or value attendees may assign the “moon earrings” of their making is up to them, for earrings have a come a long way. In the end, the Moon Earrings event at North Cobb Regional Library promises to be fun activity.
