🌕 BLOOD MOON OVER SOUTH AFRICA – THIS SUNDAY
Total Lunar Eclipse | The longest since Nov 2022 | Visible Across South Africa

This Sunday night, South Africans will witness a rare celestial event: a Blood Moon, where the full Spring Moon, September’s lunar peak in the Southern Hemisphere, is engulfed by Earth’s shadow and turns a deep copper-red.

WHAT IS A BLOOD MOON?
A Blood Moon occurs during a total lunar eclipse, when Earth moves directly between the Sun and Moon. Sunlight bends through our atmosphere, scattering blue light and casting red tones onto the Moon’s surface, like a global sunset projected onto lunar dust or a shadow.

HEMISPHERE NAMING
In the Southern Hemisphere, September’s full moon is called the Spring Moon, marking seasonal renewal, a Heritage name in South Africa.
In the Northern Hemisphere, it’s usually the Corn Moon, however, in 2025, the Harvest Moon, defined as the full moon closest to the equinox (22 Sept), falls in October (rising Oct 6). So this year, September’s full moon is the Corn Moon.

ECLIPSE TIMELINE – SOUTH AFRICA STANDARD TIME (SAST)

Partial Eclipse Begins – 18:27
Total Eclipse Begins – 19:30
🔴 Maximum Eclipse – 20:11
Total Eclipse Ends – 20:52
Partial Eclipse Ends – 21:55

Eastern regions (e.g. East London, Durban) may experience deeper red hues due to stronger gravitational lensing and clearer atmospheric conditions.

GLOBAL VISIBILITY
This will be the longest total lunar eclipse since Nov 8, 2022, lasting nearly five hours, with 82 minutes of totality.
It will be visible to 5.8 billion people, about 71% of the world’s population.

First cities to experience totality:
- Sydney, Melbourne, Perth (Australia)
- Tokyo, Seoul

Final cities to catch the eclipse at moonrise:
- Moscow, Ankara, Bucharest
- Western Europe (eclipsed moon at rise)

HOW TO WATCH
- No special equipment needed, it is visible to the naked eye
- Best viewed facing east, away from city lights
- Binoculars or a telescope will enhance surface detail
- Weather: Will be updated on Saturday

BONUS EVENT – MONDAY 8 SEPTEMBER
The following evening, the waning gibbous moon will appear close to Saturn, which will shine especially bright as it approaches annual opposition on Sept 20, its closest point to Earth this year.

SYMBOLISM & RESONANCE
In South Africa, the Blood Moon is sometimes called the Poacher’s Moon, a haunting reminder of visibility and vulnerability. But for most, it’s a moment of reflection, connection, and celestial storytelling.

“Poacher’s Moon” is a term used in parts of South Africa, especially around Zululand, to describe full moons (and especially Blood Moons) that cast unusually bright light across the landscape. That brightness, while beautiful to skywatchers, has historically made it easier for poachers to operate under cover of night.

During past full moon events, including supermoons and eclipses, there have been documented spikes in rhino poaching incidents. For example, nine rhinos were killed during the full moon in May 2017 at Hluhluwe-iMfolozi Park, and eight during a supermoon in 2015. The term “Poacher’s Moon” emerged from these grim patterns, used by rangers and conservationists as a warning signal, a reminder that celestial beauty can also bring terrestrial danger.

It’s a stark contrast: while most of us gaze up in wonder, anti-poaching teams go on high alert, knowing that the moon’s brilliance can expose both wildlife and patrol blind spots. The Blood Moon, with its eerie red glow, adds symbolic weight to that tension, beauty and threat, visibility and vulnerability, all in one frame.

Honour the sky. Face the east. Let the Moon speak.

☀ GEOMAGNETIC STORM IN PROGRESS

South Africans are hopefully going to witness a rare celestial gift tonight: the Aurora Australis, dancing faintly across southern skies under a waxing gibbous moon.

With solar wind speeds exceeding 560 km/s and a strongly southward Bz of -6.51 nT, Earth’s magnetic field is primed for auroral activity. Hemispheric power sits at 98 GW in both hemispheres, indicating symmetrical energy input and a high likelihood of visible auroras in southern latitudes. The current Kp index is 3+, but NOAA and SPWC projections show intermittent geomagnetic storm conditions peaking at G1–G3 levels, possibly higher.

The strongest auroral potential occurs between 14:00 and 20:00 SAST today, with a peak at 6.67 Kp (G3 level). After midnight, activity is expected to taper off rapidly, with Kp values dropping below storm thresholds. By midday on Sep 3, the storm will likely subside entirely.

To view the aurora from South Africa:
- Head to dark, south-facing locations with minimal light pollution.
- Best spots include Cape Agulhas, Arniston, Sutherland, Cape Point, and The Eastern Cape Shoreline.
- Look low on the southern horizon between 19:00 and 23:00 for faint red or green glows.
- Use long-exposure photography to capture what the eye may miss.

This Solar Cycle has gifted us many opportunities to view the Aurora Australis (Southern Lights) and we hope there will be more this cycle for South Africa. While nothing is guaranteed, tonight offers a rare and possibly unrepeatable chance to witness the southern lights from African soil.

Look up, breathe it in, and let the sky remind you how extraordinary Earth’s magnetic heartbeat can be.
