There is an ancient legacy that says “Red sky at night, shepherd’s joy” and “Red sky in the morning, shepherd’s warning”, which picturing signals that a very red sunset means sunny weather will come and a very red sunrise will mean bad weather or maybe a stormy day.
Various cultural groups and societies have different traditions and sayings about various celestial phenomena. I myself do not know much about such things other than just hearing them. One thing is certain, all of that gives a beautiful performance to be enjoyed, even if only for a moment.

No idea about astrology except for no star means possible rain…
Nice photo!
Look out, are there stars in your sky?
just one or 2 struggling to be seen…
but I’m not even sure if they’re stars
Only two? Did you guess it as UFO if it’s not a star?
I have heard this saying, and I believe it holds true. Great photo!
Previously, I hoped that the teacher would share knowledge here.
So share some knowledge teacher.
But… You are the teacher here…
Stop fussing lol YOU are. I am just the substitute lol.
As a weather geek I can say that red skies are either great news, or worse they are really bad weather news!
Really, I am waiting for an explanation from a weather geek!
red skies can either be the storm forming, or the storm breaking up. So either good news or bad news!
Owh… okay… that adds to my knowledge…
I have no idea about it
That’s okay, my friend. I just felt a little curious about that.
I think here it when it red sunset, it is going to be humid at night.
This is what I have read about your thoughts: If there is a lot of water vapor in the air it can make the sunset look pinker and orange – turn off bright red. This is the effect caused by water droplets that are comparable or larger in size to the wavelength of light, which means they spread all the colors of light in the same way.
The sky is very red color requires a troposphere that is very dry and clear along the path of sunlight – so air consists mostly of molecules smaller than droplets of water, dust or pollutants. The clear atmospheric conditions are usually connected to the front of the high-pressure weather moving from the west – a phenomenon that usually means tomorrow will be dry and bright. So it seems that there are indeed some proverbial truths about the red sky at night.
wow a mind reader, and weather man. good job. ??✨✨✨✨
I am confused to save the compliment because now it’s very easy to copy and paste everything…
you know you can’t do that here. you can’t just copy and paste answers. ?
“A very red sunset means sunny weather will come and a very red sunrise will mean bad weather.” First time I heard/read it. I love watching the sun, be it sunrise or sunset. Something about it spells LIFE and a red sky any day, to me, means hope and expanding feeling. Anyway, next time I see the skies red, I will take note of it and test the accuracy of this theory.
This is a quote from the Gospel of Matthew 16: 2b-3
When it is evening, you say, “It will be fair weather; for the sky is red.” And in the morning, “It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.” You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times.
Oh well, I did not read the whole bible save for the Revelations. I read parts of each Gospel but forgotten most of it. Too, sometimes some of it were contradicting. Prolly because many gospels were actually destroyed because it was deemed not favorable for the campaign to widen the grasp of Christianity.
The Revelations? Aha! At least you read something from it. Don’t think that I’m good about it for I merely found it from the internet as well…
Oh yes, the Revelations. It was in reading it that I first had a thought that it is likely that the hell being mentioned there is not really hell per se but only a metaphor. I was in first year college then. And it was in college that I stopped going to the Church and started thinking ???
The history of a rebel, eh? And now you talk with other revelations?
The Gemini in me ?
Yahahahaha… Hey, I see not only Gemini in there, but all zodiac!
Of all the zodiacs, it is the Gemini that is most talkative (generally sensible too) and I usually get along with them as well as with Aquarians, Sags, Librans, Capricorns and Scorpions and Pisces peeps (the latter two more on insult for an insult kinda thing without taking offense). Virgos, too, but they seem to have some wall with me (both my sister and cousin I live with are Virgos) prolly bcoz we both think we are right ?. Cancer peeps love and hate me both at the same time ??? I offend them easily too ?
Again, don’t forget that all the zodiacs are in you, and you’ve ever lived in all of the zodiacs too.
Maybe I have lived some and yet to live some, who knows?
I’ve heard it said before, I don’t know from experience how accurate it is
I even knew that from the gospel (Matthew 16: 2b-3)…
it’s all biblical quotes around here with us
Yes, I think so, I even found the verse on the internet a few months ago because I myself haven’t touched the gospel for a long time.
once you’ve read it, it isn’t going to change…
Yeah! You’re so right about it but I mean that I even remember nothing about it so far.
that should tell you something…
I have no clue about the color – is it natural? forest fire? the lens?
That was the sky I saw yesterday, which I later snapped, and I posted it as it is.
Stunning sunset all splashed in orange. The only saying I know is if you have an orange sunset, you will have a very beautiful day following. But I must say we never get such a brilliant sunset in the Outaouais valley but that might be because we are righ smack almost in the middle of the city. Very beautiful and calming.
Thanks for your visit and comment, my dear friend. Even an orange sunset itself already beautiful, right?
Maybe you can’t watch sunset directly from there but you have a perfect position to go anywhere you like.
Stunning picture. I do not know many signs from the sky.
Thanks, Vidocka. That’s okay… You like me too, who don’t know much about it.
I have also heard the same Albert. Amazing how much of these stories we hear are true.
Great photo you shared of the sky.
I have also given a similar comment to you. Funny uh…
Our paths just continue to cross.
Yep! I totally agree.
