Previous main lunar phase is the First Quarter before 5 days on 19 June 2029 at 09:54.
Moon rises in the afternoon and sets after midnight to early morning. It is visible to the southeast in early evening and it is up for most of the night.
Moon is passing about ∠12° of ♐ Sagittarius tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc appears visually 2.6% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1938" and ∠1888".
Next Full Moon is the Strawberry Moon of June 2029 after 1 day on 26 June 2029 at 03:22.
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.
The Moon is 13 days young. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the first to the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 364 of Meeus index or 1317 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 12 hours and 1 minute. It is 1 hour and 56 minutes longer than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decreasing with the true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
The length of the current synodic month is 44 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 26 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠244.2°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠279.1°.
1 day after point of perigee on 22 June 2029 at 15:35 in ♏ Scorpio. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 10 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 4 July 2029 at 16:05 in ♈ Aries.
The Moon is 369 859 km (229 820 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 10 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 317 km (251 231 mi).
11 days after descending node on 13 June 2029 at 04:49 in ♋ Cancer. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following day, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 26 June 2029 at 03:09 in ♑ Capricorn.
25 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♐ Sagittarius, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
At 23:29 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach South declination of ∠-24.401°. Over the next 14 days the lunar orbit is going to extend northward to face maximum declination of ∠24.399° at the point of next standstill in ♊ Gemini on 9 July 2029 at 05:56.
In 1 day on 26 June 2029 at 03:22 in ♑ Capricorn the Moon is going to be in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
