A total lunar eclipse during the winter solstice

Total lunar eclipse will take place this Monday... and Monday is an important day, because the northern hemisphere is receiving the shortest amount of sunlight.  This day (the day with the shortest amount of sunlight) is known as the the winter solstice.

Monday is also our next full moon!
