Chandra Grahan: The Total Lunar Eclipse 2025 won't be visible in India but Indians can also watch it for free online. Here's how to watch ‘Blood Moon’ 2025.
A total lunar eclipse this March will coincide with Holi celebrations. The eclipse will occur on Friday, March 14, 2025. It will create a striking red "Blood Moon" for observers across North America.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Moon moves into the Earth's shadow, causing the Moon to be darkened.
Overnight, on March 13-14, the full moon will experience a total lunar eclipse. It will be visible across the night side of Earth at the time of the eclipse, with North America in prime position for a spectacular show, Space.com reported.

The lunar eclipse will reportedly reach its maximum phase, whereby the moon is fully engulfed by Earth's deepest darkest shadow, at 2:59 am EDT (12:29 pm IST) on March 14.
