The Blue Moon comes as the second full moon in a month. That happens every two and half years once, hence it called as "Once in a Blue Moon".
And with Earth in between the Sun and the Moon, Sunlight has to pass through the Earth's atmosphere, which scatters the green to violet light more than it scatters the red light. So the Moon appears red, called as a Blood Moon.
