Typically, lunar eclipses occur once or twice a year.
Because more than half of all lunar eclipses are partial, and because lunar eclipses are visible only from the side of the Earth where the Moon is up, you would generally be able to see a total lunar eclipse every other year or every 3rd year from your location. The rest of the eclipses would be either partial, or not visible from your location.

On average, there are between two to four lunar eclipses in a year. However, not all of these eclipses are visible from a specific location on Earth.
No, lunar eclipses do not occur every 3 years. On average, there are about 2 to 4 lunar eclipses each year, but the frequency can vary. A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, leading to a shadow on the Moon.
Lunar Eclipses (the darkening of a full moon by the shadow of the Earth) occur every 6 months, and total lunar eclipses normally come in sets of three, followed by three partial eclipses.The lunar eclipse of June 26, 2010 is a partial eclipse visible mainly in Australia. There will be total lunar eclipses on December 21 (2010), June 15 (2011), and December 10 (2011).Solar Eclipses (shadow of the Moon partially or fully blocking the Sun) can occur two to five times a year, but the majority are partial eclipses. Total eclipses occur about once every 18 months, and affect a very limited area. The maximum coverage of the solar disk lasts between 6 and 7.5 minutes.
No, lunar eclipses occur more frequently than that. On average, there are about 2 to 4 lunar eclipses every year. Lunar eclipses happen when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon.
A solar eclipse is rarer than a lunar eclipse. Solar eclipses occur less frequently because they require alignment of the Sun, Moon, and Earth in a specific way for the Moon to block the Sun's light. Lunar eclipses, on the other hand, occur when Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, making them more common.

No. During the 5000-year period 2000 BCE to 3000 CE, there have been / will be a total of 12,064 lunar eclipses ... an average of about 2.4 per year. During the 10-year period 2001 to 2010, there are 24 lunar eclipses ... also 2.4 per year. There were 3 lunar eclipses in 2001, and 4 lunar eclipses in 2009. December 21, 2010 is/was the second lunar eclipse of 2010. So over the long term, you're looking at between 2 and 3 lunar eclipses every year.
No, lunar eclipses do not occur every 3 years. On average, there are about 2 to 4 lunar eclipses each year, but the frequency can vary. A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth comes between the Sun and the Moon, leading to a shadow on the Moon.
Globally, solar eclipses are slightly more frequent. But a lunar eclipse can be seen from any place where the Moon is above the horizon, whereas a solar eclipse can only be seen from a narrow strip of land. So, for any particular fixed observer, solar eclipses - and especially total solar eclipses - are quite rare. During the 100 years of the 20th Century, there were 228 solar eclipses and 229 lunar ones. So over the long term, you can figure on equal numbers, at the rate of around 7 of each every 3 years.
No, a lunar eclipse does not happen every 4 years. On average, there are about two to four lunar eclipses each year. The frequency and visibility of lunar eclipses can vary due to the positions of the Earth, Sun, and Moon.
i believe evry 1oo years but I'm not sure

Lunar eclipses occur more frequently than Solar eclipses. About 70 eclipses take place in regular cycles lasting 18 years and 8 or 9 days; usually 41 of these eclipses are solar and 29 are lunar.
There's no regular schedule. Here are a few facts: -- The closest together that two eclipses can possibly be is about 2 weeks. -- On the average over a period of many years, there are about 2.3 lunar eclipses and 2.3 solar ones every year. But that's a long-term average. -- There can be anywhere from one to five eclipses in one year ... lunar, solar, or mixed.
