Moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. It is visible all night and it is high in the sky around midnight.
Moon is passing about ∠17° of ♎ Libra tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc appears visually 1.1% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1893" and ∠1914".
The Full Moon this days is the Pink of April 2036.
There is high Full Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
The Moon is 14 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 448 of Meeus index or 1401 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 12 hours and 36 minutes. It is 2 hours and 52 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 8 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 6 hours and 1 minute longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠258.5°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠292.8°.
4 days after point of perigee on 6 April 2036 at 09:36 in ♌ Leo. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 8 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 18 April 2036 at 17:40 in ♑ Capricorn.
The Moon is 378 628 km (235 269 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 8 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 135 km (251 118 mi).
3 days after ascending node on 6 April 2036 at 19:59 in ♌ Leo. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following 10 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 20 April 2036 at 16:14 in ♒ Aquarius.
3 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♌ Leo, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.
6 days since the previous standstill on 3 April 2036 at 13:10 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠19.439°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 6 days to face maximum declination of ∠-19.540° at the point of next southern standstill on 16 April 2036 at 20:29 in ♑ Capricorn.
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
