Moon is passing first ∠0° of ♋ Cancer tropical zodiac sector.
Apparent angular diameter
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1880" and ∠1887".
Buck Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2033 after 15 days on 12 July 2033 at 09:29.
Upcoming main Moon phases
- First Quarter in Libra ♎ on 4 July 2033 at 17:12
- Full Moon in Capricorn ♑ on 12 July 2033 at 09:29
- Last Quarter in Aries ♈ on 19 July 2033 at 04:07

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
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 11 hours and 6 minutes. It is 2 hours and 21 minutes shorter than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increasing with the 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 1 hour and 39 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 31 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠74.1°
The true anomaly is ∠74.1°. At the beginning of the next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠108.5°.
Moon after perigee
5 days after point of perigee on 21 June 2033 at 01:28 in ♈ Aries. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 7 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 4 July 2033 at 04:55 in ♎ Libra.
Distance to Moon 381 290 km
The Moon is 381 290 km (236 923 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 7 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 093 km (251 092 mi).
Moon after descending node
5 days after descending node on 21 June 2033 at 08:42 in ♈ Aries. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 8 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 5 July 2033 at 01:29 in ♎ Libra.
Draconic month
18 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♎ Libra, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
Moon at northern standstill
At 03:12 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach North declination of ∠18.717°. Over the next 14 days the lunar orbit is going to extend southward to face maximum declination of ∠-18.676° at the point of next standstill in ♐ Sagittarius on 10 July 2033 at 14:02.
Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
