Moon is passing about ∠19° of ♏ Scorpio tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1768" and ∠1942".
Next Full Moon is the Cold Moon of December 2025 after 15 days on 4 December 2025 at 23:14.
There is high New Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
At 12:25 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 319 of Meeus index or 1272 from Brown series.
29 days, 18 hours and 22 minutes is the length of new lunation 319. It is 34 minutes shorter than next lunation 320 length.
Length of current synodic month is 5 hours and 38 minutes longer than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 1 hour and 25 minutes shorter, compared to 21st century longest.
This lunation true anomaly is ∠156.8°. At the beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠181.4°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep decreasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
13 days after point of perigee on 5 November 2025 at 22:29 in ♉ Taurus. The lunar orbit is getting wider, while the Moon is moving outward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next day, until it get to the point of next apogee on 20 November 2025 at 02:48 in ♏ Scorpio.

11 days after previous North standstill on 8 November 2025 at 11:41 in ♊ Gemini, when Moon has reached northern declination of ∠28.387°. Next 3 days the lunar orbit moves southward to face South declination of ∠-28.295° in the next southern standstill on 22 November 2025 at 18:12 in ♐ Sagittarius.
The Moon is in New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun on this date and this alignment forms Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy.
