I know that [_Project Tsuki-no-
Me_](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Eye_of_the_Moon_Plan) was supposed to be
"Madara's" Sharingan's reflection on the Moon itself, as Tobi declared during
the _Five Kage Summit_. However, when he got his hands on the Nine-Tails
Chakra from Lords Kinkaku and Ginkaku, the moon turned into a red one — it
looks just like a regular full moon, but in red colour. So, is that the first
stage of _Project Tsuki-no-me_?

What is "Project Tsuki-no-Me" exactly?


Tsuki no me, is essentially a permanent dream state, the user's body is kept
alive by a certain mechanism- spoiler avoided. But the "spirit" is tricked
into a "happy" dream.

The Sharingan has the ability to hypnotize someone just by making eye-contact
with them.

From the [Sharingan](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Sharingan) article:

> The Sharingan's final commonly-used ability is capable of inducing a unique
> brand of hypnosis that involves suggesting actions and thoughts to the
> opponent through genjutsu cast by simple eye contact between both parties

Obito was even able to control Kurama, commonly known as the Nine-Tails (九尾,
Kyūbi), so you can imagine what Madara's Sharingan hypnosis is capable of.

Again, from the [Sharingan](http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Sharingan) article:

> [...] only Madara and Obito Uchiha have achieved this feat. It has been
> stated by Madara Uchiha that the beasts were slaves to those with the
> blessed eyes. When this was used against Manda and the Nine-Tails, their
> eyes took on the tomoe pattern of the users' Sharingan while under hypnotic
> influence

In order to hypnotize everyone, Madara needs everyone to look into his eyes.
Therefore, he utilizes the moon as a reflector for his eyes so that he can
apply Sharingan hypnosis on everyone who looks at the moon. The red moon is
the start of his Sharingan reflection.
