Brief Explanations
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth is between the Sun and the Moon. This alignment can only happen when the Moon is in the full - moon phase. In the full - moon phase, the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun, allowing for the possibility of the Earth's shadow falling on the Moon.
