Lunar disc appears visually 3.8% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1818" and ∠1889".
Next Full Moon is the Sturgeon Moon of August 2041 after 17 days on 12 August 2041 at 02:04.
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 27 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the second to the final part of current synodic month. This is lunation 513 of Meeus index or 1466 from Brown series.
Length of current 513 lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 45 minutes. It is 1 hour and 29 minutes shorter than next lunation 514 length.
Length of current synodic month is 1 hour and 1 minute longer than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 6 hours and 2 minutes shorter, compared to 21st century longest.
This New Moon true anomaly is ∠123.4°. At beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠152.5°. 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°).
10 days after point of perigee on 15 July 2041 at 09:14 in ♒ Aquarius. The lunar orbit is getting wider, while the Moon is moving outward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next 5 days, until it get to the point of next apogee on 30 July 2041 at 20:07 in ♍ Virgo.

At 16:19 on this date the Moon is meeting its North standstill point, when it will reach northern declination of ∠27.332°. Next 14 days the lunar orbit will move in opposite southward direction to face South declination of ∠-27.426° in its southern standstill point on 9 August 2041 at 04:03 in ♑ Capricorn.
After 2 days on 28 July 2041 at 01:02 in ♌ Leo, the Moon will be in New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and this alignment forms next Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy.
