We've all heard of the prophesy about the sun turning to sackcloth (solar eclipse) and moon turning to blood. The moon won't really turn to blood, but it does appear red when there is a lunar eclipse.
We also know that God created the sun, MOON and stars for "signs and seasons". I came across this video and it was pretty interesting. Just 8 minutes. What do you think? Are the years 2014-2015 going to be a special?
The last few times these back-to-back years of red moons fell on passover was 1967 and 1949 (after statehood and the 6-Day War). Very important dates concerning Israel. I am wondering if God has something in store for Israel in 2014-2015.
The skeptics brush it aside. But if the Bible says that God made the Moon to demonstrate "signs," and given the last couple times this happened on important dates, maybe we should pay more attention to this. It appears to be more than just coincidence.

Yes, definitely, I believe something very significant will happen regarding Israel before the 2014 and 2015 Red Moon Tetrads. No one knows what that very significant event will be, but some speculate the possibility of the Third Temple, which does sound logical. 1948 - Israel became a state. 1967 - Jerusalem became the capital. 2013? Third Temple?
Seriously, I discovered these same coming Red Moon Tetrads in my own studying. I understood the probable significance better when I saw a teaching at testeverything.net. I believe in checking out everything that is stated for myself. I found on the NASA.gov site the Catalog of Lunar Eclipses and YES-- these are TOTAL and on Passover and Sukkot. On April 13, 1949 was Nisan 14 (Passover) and on Oct 7, 1949 was Feast of Tabernacles (Tishri 15). On April 2, 1950 Nisan 14/15? (Passover) and on Sept 26, 1950 was also Feast of Tabernacles (Tishri 15). In 1967 there was Two Total...one on April 24, 1967 on Nisan 14 (Passover) and on Oct 18, 1967 Feast of Tabernacles (Tishri15/16?). And then two more TOTAL in 1968 ...one on April 13, 1968 on Nisan 14 (Passover) and on Oct 6 Feast of Tabernacles (Tishri 15/16?). (I am using this Hebrew calendar for my dates....

OK, that proves your video is absolutely correct. But did you know that there will also be two Total Solar Eclipses in 2015 and 2016? On March 20, 2015 (which is the first day of the first month of God's calendar...Nisan 1) and the other on March 9, 2016 (which is also the first day of the first month of God's calendar...Nisan 1).
Joe 2:31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood,
BEFORE the great and the terrible day of the LORD come.
Scriptures of what happens
ON the day of the Lord:
Isa 13:9 Behold, the day of the LORD cometh, cruel both with wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate: and he shall destroy the sinners thereof out of it.
Isa 13:10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be
darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
Isa 13:11 And I will punish the world for their evil, and the wicked for their iniquity; and I will cause the arrogancy of the proud to cease, and will lay low the haughtiness of the terrible.
Mar 13:24 But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be
darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
Mar 13:25 And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.
Mar 13:26 And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
So...should we look for a "darkened" sun (not in darkness)? One upcoming example is a Partial Solar Eclipse that will occur on September 1, 2016. This is a peculiar date on God's calendar because there is more than one way to calculate God's calendar and much controversy. For those who believe in a conjunction New Moon (astronomical new moon - fully darkened) this date will be Feast of Trumpets. But, for those who believe in a sighted moon and the 19-year-cycle calendar of reckoning this will be in the 6th month and not the 7th.
Also it is interesting to note that in the Fall the stars appear to be falling as they hit the horizon. I don't know what the future holds, or when the Tribulation or Great Tribulation will begin, but I do lean heavily in believing the Word is literal, as in "BEFORE" the day of the Lord and "ON" the day of the Lord.
Many more prophetic signs must occur...so keep watching and "Understanding" (Knowledge will increase - Dan 12:4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.)
