Synodic month length 29.67 days

The length of the lunation is 29 days, 16 hours and 1 minute. It is 1 hour and 49 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 longer than mean

The length of the current synodic month is 3 hours and 16 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 47 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.

True anomaly ∠140.6°

The true anomaly is ∠140.6°. At the beginning of the next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠166.6°.

Moon before perigee

11 days after point of perigee on 12 August 2033 at 21:22 in ♓ Pisces. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 4 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 28 August 2033 at 15:27 in ♎ Libra.

Distance to Moon 398 775 km

The Moon is 398 775 km (247 787 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 4 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 762 km (252 129 mi).

Moon before ascending node

10 days after descending node on 14 August 2033 at 11:54 in ♈ Aries. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 3 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 28 August 2033 at 07:12 in ♎ Libra.

Moon after northern standstill

4 days since the previous standstill on 19 August 2033 at 17:46 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠18.456°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 9 days to face maximum declination of ∠-18.364° at the point of next southern standstill on 3 September 2033 at 09:54 in ♐ Sagittarius.

Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy

The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
