The sun does not GO THROUGH a lunar eclipse. In a lunar eclipse, the moon passes through Earth's shadow, but some light from the sun bends in the atmosphere and strikes the moon. As it bends, lower frequencies tend to pass through better, and so the moon appears orange or red. This is completely normal during a lunar eclipse, and has nothing to do with a change in the atmosphere.

Therefore, a blood moon is just a normal lunar eclipse. The thing about Jewish holidays is a coincidence.
