Moon is passing about ∠5° of ♌ Leo tropical zodiac sector.
3 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 3 days on 17 September 2041 at 05:33.
Hunter Moon after 19 days
Next Full Moon is the Hunter Moon of October 2041 after 19 days on 9 October 2041 at 18:03.
Neap tide
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.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1786"
Lunar disc appears visually 6.8% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1786" and ∠1911".
Lunation 515 / 1468
The Moon is 25 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 515 of Meeus index or 1468 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 16 hours and 25 minutes and it is 24 minutes shorter than the upcoming lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decrease with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
Lunation length longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 3 hours and 41 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 22 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠176.4°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠176.4° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠200.1°.
Moon before apogee
10 days since point of perigee on 10 September 2041 at 02:12 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 2 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 23 September 2041 at 04:59 in ♍ Virgo.
The Moon is 401 297 km(249 354 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 2 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 406 361 km(252 501 mi).
Moon after ascending node
6 days after ascending node on 13 September 2041 at 16:25 in ♈ Aries the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 7 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 28 September 2041 at 03:42 in ♏ Scorpio.
2 days since the last northern standstill on 18 September 2041 at 03:03 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠27.700° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 12 days to face maximum declination of ∠-27.789° at the point of next southern standstill on 2 October 2041 at 19:54 in ♐ Sagittarius.
In 4 days on 25 September 2041 at 08:41 in ♎ Libra 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.
