Moon is passing first ∠1° of ♒ Aquarius tropical zodiac sector.
3 days after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 3 days on 11 June 2025 at 07:44.
Strawberry Moon before 3 days
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2025 after 26 days on 10 July 2025 at 20:37.
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 ∠1854"
Lunar disc appears visually 1.9% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1854" and ∠1889".
Lunation 314 / 1267
The Moon is 17 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 314 of Meeus index or 1267 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 7 hours and 29 minutes and it is 1 hour and 11 minutes shorter than the upcoming lunation's length. This is the year's shortest synodic month of 2025. 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 5 hours and 15 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 54 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠17.8°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠17.8° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠36.2°.
Moon after apogee
7 days since point of apogee on 7 June 2025 at 10:42 in ♏ Scorpio the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 8 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 23 June 2025 at 04:43 in ♊ Gemini.
The Moon is 386 667 km(240 264 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 8 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 363 178 km(225 668 mi).
Moon before ascending node
10 days after descending node on 4 June 2025 at 01:33 in ♍ Virgo the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 3 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 18 June 2025 at 09:41 in ♓ Pisces.
2 days since the last southern standstill on 11 June 2025 at 23:54 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-28.394° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 10 days to face maximum declination of ∠28.402° at the point of next northern standstill on 25 June 2025 at 01:43 in ♊ Gemini.
In 10 days on 25 June 2025 at 10:31 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.
