Spring tide
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.
New lunation 414 / 1367
At 21:07 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 414 of Meeus index or 1367 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.46 days
29 days, 11 hours and 6 minutes is the length of new lunation 414. It is 2 hours and 21 minutes shorter than next lunation 415 length.
Lunation length shorter than mean
Length of current synodic month is 1 hour and 39 minutes shorter than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 4 hours and 31 minutes longer, compared to 21st century shortest.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠74.1°
This New Moon true anomaly is ∠74.1°. At beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠108.5°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep increasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of apogee (∠180°).
Moon after perigee
5 days after point of perigee on 21 June 2033 at 01:28 in ♈ Aries. The lunar orbit is getting wider, while the Moon is moving outward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next 7 days, until it get to the point of next apogee on 4 July 2033 at 04:55 in ♎ Libra.
Distance to Moon 381 290 km
Moon is 381 290 km (236 923 mi) away from Earth on this date. Moon moves farther next 7 days until apogee, when Earth-Moon distance will reach 404 093 km (251 092 mi).
Moon after descending node
5 days after its descending node on 21 June 2033 at 08:42 in ♈ Aries, the Moon is following the southern part of its orbit for the next 8 days, until it will cross the ecliptic from South to North in ascending node on 5 July 2033 at 01:29 in ♎ Libra.
Draconic month
18 days after beginning of current draconic month in ♎ Libra, the Moon is moving from the second to the final part of it.
Moon in northern standstill
At 03:12 on this date the Moon is meeting its North standstill point, when it will reach northern declination of ∠18.717°. Next 14 days the lunar orbit will move in opposite southward direction to face South declination of ∠-18.676° in its southern standstill point on 10 July 2033 at 14:02 in ♐ Sagittarius.
Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy
The Moon is in New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun on this date and this alignment forms Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy.
