On Sunday evening, a rare Blue Moon, defined as the second full moon in a calendar month, was visible across India, including Delhi's India Gate and Ayodhya. Despite its name, the Moon did not appear blue but showed typical colors such as white, silver, and light yellow, with some observers noting reddish or orange hues. This celestial event, occurring once every two to three years, attracted skywatchers and devotees who expressed appreciation for the spectacle.
