Moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset. It's part facing the Earth is completely in shadow.
Moon is passing about ∠21° of ♓ Pisces tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1912" and ∠1934".
Next Full Moon is the Worm Moon of March 2049 after 15 days on 19 March 2049 at 12:23.
There is high New Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
At 00:11 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 608 of Meeus index or 1561 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 11 hours and 28 minutes. It is 1 hour and 4 minutes shorter than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increasing with the true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at apogee (∠180°).
The length of the current synodic month is 1 hour and 16 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 53 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
The true anomaly is ∠39.7°. At the beginning of the next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠67°.
2 days after point of perigee on 1 March 2049 at 12:45 in ♒ Aquarius. 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 13 March 2049 at 07:24 in ♋ Cancer.
The Moon is 374 918 km (232 963 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 8 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 598 km (251 406 mi).
6 days after ascending node on 25 February 2049 at 20:27 in ♐ Sagittarius. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following 6 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 10 March 2049 at 19:09 in ♊ Gemini.
6 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♐ Sagittarius, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.
6 days since the previous standstill on 26 February 2049 at 03:09 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-22.575°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 6 days to face maximum declination of ∠22.452° at the point of next northern standstill on 11 March 2049 at 05:37 in ♊ Gemini.
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
