Single blood moons are more common.
A few months ago we had a lot of smoke in the air from forest fires hundreds of miles away - so much smoke as to be a health hazard. The moon was blood red.

So prophecy nuts don't have to rely on mere astronomy for "fulfilment".

Finding meaning in the mundane is a basic part of being human...
Most likely true.

... and there is nothing wrong about finding meaning in anything and everything at all.
Clearly false. There CAN be a LOT wrong with it. An obvious example would be if you take the blood moon to "mean" the end of the world and you do everything in your power to accelerate the process.

It's wrong to try to end the world; it is not wrong too think the world is ending.
It isn't about thinking. You said there is "nothing" wrong about "finding" meaning. When one "finds" meaning, one often acts.
