This catalog has a page for every lunar eclipse from 2000 BC to 3000 AD, 12,064 in all, shown in groups of 20 years at a time. You can go to any eclipse by selecting the milennium, century and 20-year period from the navigation tabs above; then click on an eclipse's date in the list below to to go its page.

You can see the solar eclipses or the combined eclipse catalog by clicking "Solar Eclipses" or "All Eclipses" in the top-right tabs.

Lunar Eclipses, 0400–0381 BC

Note that eclipse dates are specified relative to UT. You have not selected a timezone for eclipse timings, so all times are shown in UT (essentially GMT).
7 Jun, 0400 BC
max: 11:41 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.65; Saros 43)
The Moon was strikingly shadowed in this deep partial eclipse which lasted 2 hours and 59 minutes, with 65% of the Moon in darkness at maximum.
   
1 Dec, 0400 BC
max: 11:04 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.48; Saros 48)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 27 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 48% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow. The visual effect of this depends on the state of the Earth's atmosphere, but the Moon may have been stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 26 minutes in total.
   
27 May, 0399 BC
max: 12:21 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.61; Saros 53)
A dramatic total eclipse lasting 1 hour and 43 minutes plunged the full Moon into deep darkness, as it passed right through the centre of the Earth's umbral shadow. While the visual effect of a total eclipse is variable, the Moon may have been stained a deep orange or red colour at maximum eclipse. This was a great spectacle for everyone who saw it. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 54 minutes in total.
   
21 Nov, 0399 BC
max: 02:19 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.03; Saros 58)
The Moon barely edged into total eclipse for 24 minutes and 24 seconds. With the Moon just 3% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, the Moon may have been quite bright, but even so, this should have been worth seeing. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 11 minutes in total.
   
16 May, 0398 BC
max: 16:06 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.24; Saros 63)
The Earth's shadow on the moon was clearly visible in this eclipse, with 24% of the Moon in shadow; the partial eclipse lasted for 1 hour and 51 minutes.
   
10 Nov, 0398 BC
max: 13:22 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.70; Saros 68)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 70% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth (none of it was in total shadow), which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 3 hours and 49 minutes.
   
5 Apr, 0397 BC
max: 19:06 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.08; Saros 35)
A tiny bite out of the Moon may have been visible at maximum, though just 8% of the Moon was shadowed in a partial eclipse which lasted for 1 hour and 3 minutes. A shading across the moon from the Earth's penumbral shadow should have been visible at maximum eclipse.
   
29 Sep, 0397 BC
max: 22:44 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.95; Saros 40)
This subtle penumbral eclipse may have been visible to a skilled observer at maximum eclipse. 95% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth (none of it was in total shadow), which caused a gentle shadow gradient across its disc at maximum; the eclipse as a whole lasted 4 hours and 39 minutes.
   
26 Mar, 0396 BC
max: 11:57 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.42; Saros 45)
The Moon was plunged into darkness for 1 hour and 24 minutes, in a deep total eclipse which saw the Moon 42% of its diameter inside the Earth's umbral shadow. The visual effect of this depends on the state of the Earth's atmosphere, but the Moon may have been stained a deep red colour. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 25 minutes in total.
   
18 Sep, 0396 BC
max: 22:45 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.17; Saros 50)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 1 hour and 3 minutes. The Moon was 17% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 36 minutes in total.
   
16 Mar, 0395 BC
max: 03:14 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.97; Saros 55)
The Moon was almost covered by the Earth's shadow in a very deep partial eclipse, which lasted 3 hours and 12 minutes. With 97% of the Moon in shadow at maximum eclipse, this was quite a memorable event.
   
8 Sep, 0395 BC
max: 04:48 UT
Total Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 1.15; Saros 60)
A shallow total eclipse saw the Moon in relative darkness for 58 minutes and 30 seconds. The Moon was 15% of its diameter into the Earth's umbral shadow, and should have been significantly darkened. The partial eclipse lasted for 3 hours and 26 minutes in total.
   
5 Mar, 0394 BC
max: 12:36 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.54; Saros 65)

30 Jul, 0394 BC
max: 09:41 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.10; Saros 32)
In this extremely marginal eclipse, the Moon barely clipped the edge of the Earth's penumbral shadow. This caused a microscopic darkening of just 10% of the Moon's disc for 1 hour and 24 minutes, which was essentially impossible to see.
   
28 Aug, 0394 BC
max: 17:53 UT
Penumbral Lunar Eclipse
(penum. mag. 0.88; Saros 70)
At maximum eclipse, 88% of the Moon's disc was partially shaded by the Earth, which caused a slight shadow gradient across its disc; this subtle effect may have been visible to careful observers. No part of the Moon was in complete shadow. The eclipse lasted 3 hours and 54 minutes overall.
23 Jan, 0393 BC
max: 20:53 UT
Partial Lunar Eclipse
(umbral mag. 0.09; Saros 37)
