There’s a sign of the times literally on the horizon.
This coming weekend, we will witness none other than the “pink moon,” right in the timeframe between Passover and Easter. As App.com notes, this pink moon is special not only because of its color, but also because it is a micro moon that will appear even smaller in person than normal, and because it is the “Paschal Moon,” which occurs at Passover, acting as a key indicator that Easter is coming the following week.

Along with this significant moon, the Lyrid meteor shower will follow later this month between Apr. 21-22, with the “Flower Moon” to occur next month on May 12.
So, what could all of this mean from a prophetic standpoint?
/**/Scripture repeatedly points to the heavens as a divine canvas for God’s messages. The fact that this particular moon is called “Paschal” ties it directly to the sacrificial lamb of Passover and the Resurrection of Christ—both of which are central to the Gospel message. The micro nature of this moon, appearing smaller to the eye, might also serve as a subtle reminder that what may seem insignificant to the natural eye can carry great spiritual weight. In a season where God is calling His people to watch, discern and prepare, such timing is no coincidence.
We are reminded of Jesus’ words in Luke 21:25, “There will be signs in the sun, moon and stars…”—not for fear, but as alerts to the unfolding of divine purpose. The convergence of these cosmic events during one of the holiest seasons of the biblical calendar may be God’s way of drawing our eyes upward, prompting repentance, expectation and a fresh alignment with His purposes.
The heavens are declaring not only God’s glory, but perhaps also His nearness. The question for believers is: are we listening?
