Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 3 days on 17 October 2035 at 02:35.
Moon rises in the evening and sets in the morning. It is visible to the southwest and it is high in the sky after midnight.
Moon is passing about ∠12° of ♊ Gemini tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc appears visually 1.7% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1961" and ∠1927".
Next Full Moon is the Beaver Moon of November 2035 after 26 days on 15 November 2035 at 13:49.
There is low ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at big angle, so their combined tidal force is weak.
The Moon is 18 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the middle to the last part of current synodic month. This is lunation 442 of Meeus index or 1395 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 52 minutes. It is 2 hours and 47 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°).
The length of the current synodic month is 1 hour and 8 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 55 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠75°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠110.7°.
Moon is at perigee at 19:38. It is 12 days after previous apogee on 8 October 2035 at 19:01 in ♑ Capricorn. Lunar orbit is going to widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth over the next 16 days, until point of next apogee on 5 November 2035 at 15:01 in ♑ Capricorn.
This perigee Moon is 367 444 km (228 319 mi) away from Earth. It is 4 936 km closer than the mean perigee distance, but it is still 2 912 km further than the closest perigee of 21st century.
7 days after descending node on 13 October 2035 at 10:19 in ♓ Pisces. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 5 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 26 October 2035 at 07:11 in ♍ Virgo.
21 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♍ Virgo, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
11 days since the previous standstill on 8 October 2035 at 14:46 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-18.877°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠18.978° at the point of next northern standstill on 22 October 2035 at 04:59 in ♋ Cancer.
In 10 days on 31 October 2035 at 02:59 in ♏ Scorpio the Moon is going to be in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
