Moon is leaving the last ∠4° of ♒ Aquarius tropical zodiac sector and will enter ♓ Pisces later.
4 days after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 4 days on 13 June 2014 at 04:11.
Strawberry Moon before 4 days
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2014 after 24 days on 12 July 2014 at 11:25.
Moderate tide
There is medium ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at very acute angle, so their combined tidal force is moderate.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1970"
Lunar disc appears visually 4.2% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1970" and ∠1888".
Lunation 178 / 1131
The Moon is 19 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 178 of Meeus index or 1131 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 28 minutes and it is 1 hour and 5 minutes shorter than the upcoming lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increase with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at apogee (∠180°).
Lunation length longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 44 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 6 hours and 19 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠112.5°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠112.5° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠144.1°.
Moon after perigee
2 days since point of perigee on 15 June 2014 at 03:34 in ♑ Capricorn the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 13 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 30 June 2014 at 19:09 in ♌ Leo.
The Moon is 363 829 km(226 073 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 13 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 932 km(252 234 mi).
Moon before descending node
8 days after ascending node on 9 June 2014 at 05:36 in ♎ Libra the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 4 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 21 June 2014 at 20:30 in ♈ Aries.
4 days since the last southern standstill on 13 June 2014 at 06:03 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-19.033° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 8 days to face maximum declination of ∠19.035° at the point of next northern standstill on 26 June 2014 at 08:34 in ♊ Gemini.
In 9 days on 27 June 2014 at 08:09 in ♋ Cancer the Moon is going to be in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
