Moon is passing about ∠25° of ♐ Sagittarius tropical zodiac sector.
1 day after New Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the New Moon before 1 day on 23 November 2041 at 17:36.
Cold Moon after 12 days
Next Full Moon is the Cold Moon of December 2041 after 12 days on 7 December 2041 at 17:42.
Moderate tide
There is medium ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at very acute angle, so their combined tidal force is moderate.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1882"
Lunar disc appears visually 3.2% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1882" and ∠1944".
Lunation 518 / 1471
The Moon is 2 days young and navigating from the beginning to the first part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 518 of Meeus index or 1471 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 14 hours and 30 minutes and it is 1 hour and 54 minutes longer 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 1 hour and 46 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 17 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠265.9°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠265.9° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠300.9°.
Moon before perigee
8 days since point of apogee on 17 November 2041 at 10:08 in ♍ Virgo the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 7 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 2 December 2041 at 16:20 in ♓ Pisces.
The Moon is 380 775 km(236 603 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 7 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 369 538 km(229 620 mi).
Moon after descending node
3 days after descending node on 21 November 2041 at 17:04 in ♎ Libra the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 9 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 4 December 2041 at 20:02 in ♈ Aries.
13 days since the last northern standstill on 11 November 2041 at 19:44 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠27.827° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠-27.785° at the point of next southern standstill on 26 November 2041 at 07:01 in ♑ Capricorn.
In 12 days on 7 December 2041 at 17:42 in ♊ Gemini the Moon is going to be in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
