The Moon is 15 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 466 of Meeus index or 1419 from Brown series.
Length of current 466 lunation is 29 days, 8 hours and 9 minutes. It is 1 hour and 20 minutes shorter than next lunation 467 length.
Length of current synodic month is 4 hours and 35 minutes shorter than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 1 hour and 34 minutes longer, compared to 21st century shortest.
This New Moon true anomaly is ∠354.5°. At beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠9.6°. 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 is reaching point of apogee on this date at 03:44, this is 14 days after last perigee on 10 September 2037 at 02:13 in ♍ Virgo.

6 days after previous South standstill on 17 September 2037 at 19:36 in ♑ Capricorn, when Moon has reached southern declination of ∠-21.547°. Next 8 days the lunar orbit moves northward to face North declination of ∠21.695° in the next northern standstill on 2 October 2037 at 13:57 in ♋ Cancer.
The Moon is in Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun on this date and this alignment forms Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy.
