The Blood Moon
In March 2025, a striking red super moon rose above St. Louis, casting a deep, warm glow across the skyline. The event occurred when the Moon reached its perigee—its closest point to Earth—making it appear noticeably larger and brighter than usual. Atmospheric conditions that night enhanced the reddish tint, giving the city a rare and dramatic lunar display. Residents across the region stepped outside to watch the vivid “red supermoon,” which lingered over the Mississippi River and illuminated the city’s landmarks with an unforgettable, otherworldly light.
