The Old English word springan meant to "leap up" or to "burst forth." And that's our season alright.

Four complete lunar eclipses will appear over about a year, starting last night. The right reverend pastor John Hagee, of Texas’ Cornerstone Church, says God is trying to communicate with humans through these celestial signs. As if God can't speak in clear American to tell us what is so important on his mind. Televangelist Hagee claims the four blood moons are evidence of a future “world-shaking event.” Well, that is a prophesy, indeed.
Though mine lacks his thunder, it equals his in specificity: "I prophesy that because a 15 pound limestone rock fell on my finger yesterday while I was building a wall, during our next presidential election the country will be divided politically; and during the next year the stock market will perform in ways nobody could have predicted exactly; and this next year Iran will upset fundamentalists in America, and America will upset fundamentalists in Iran. And, worst of all, the Great Left Toenail of the Beast out of Revelation (which we all know is Bill Moyers) will say one thing that is True and one thing that is False, proving that liberals are intent on deceiving the rest of us god-fearing authentic Americans just wanting another hour's sleep after being up between two and three o'clock last night watching blood moons and wondering if it's not the Holy Mother of God's time of the month."

Early this morning I was able to wake up at about two or two-thirty and notice that the usual white landscape outside the windows was dark. That would be the shadow of the earth covering the moon and leaving with it just a faint reddening of sunlight imitating what it does for our own sky in mornings and evenings.
