Your birthday occurs more often than a lunar eclipse. Lunar eclipses happen roughly twice a year, whereas your birthday occurs once a year.
On average, a total lunar eclipse can be observed from somewhere on Earth about every 2.5 years. However, the visibility of a lunar eclipse in the US can vary depending on the specific location and timing of the eclipse.
A full moon lunar eclipse happens approximately twice a year.
A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, causing the Earth's shadow to fall on the Moon. These events can happen up to three times a year, although not every lunar eclipse is visible from all locations on Earth. The frequency can vary based on the alignment of the Earth, Moon, and Sun, but there are typically at least two lunar eclipses annually.

A lunar eclipse occurs when the Earth passes between the Sun and the Moon, causing the Earth's shadow to fall on the Moon. This shadow has three parts: the umbra (the darkest part), the penumbra (the outer part), and the antumbra. When the Moon moves into the Earth's umbra, it experiences a total lunar eclipse, where it may appear red due to Rayleigh scattering of sunlight through the Earth's atmosphere, often referred to as a "blood moon." Thus, the shading of direct sunlight by the Earth is what creates the conditions for a lunar eclipse.
Sometimes a lunar eclipse can be seen with the naked eye. Often times, a telescope assists in viewing an eclipse.
It's the other way around; more people can see a total lunar eclipse than a total solar eclipse. The reason is that a lunar eclipse happens on the Moon; it is visible from half of the Earth's surface. A solar eclipse occurs along a narrow track across the Earth, and 75% of the Earth's surface is oceans.

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.

because it acres more often
A solar eclipse is when the moon passes in front of the sun which creates a shadow on the earth. So it would be earth then moon then sun all in a line. A lunar eclipse is when the earth is between the sun and moon blocking most of the light that is reflecting off the moon. Solar eclipses don't happen as often as lunar eclipses.

About once per year.
