Moon is passing about ∠7° of ♑ Capricorn tropical zodiac sector.
2 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 2 days on 1 March 2054 at 07:36.
Worm Moon after 20 days
Next Full Moon is the Worm Moon of March 2054 after 20 days on 23 March 2054 at 17:21.
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 ∠1781"
Lunar disc appears visually 8.3% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1781" and ∠1935".
Lunation 669 / 1622
The Moon is 24 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 669 of Meeus index or 1622 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 18 hours and 32 minutes and it is 2 hours and 45 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 5 hours and 48 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 15 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠193.2°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠193.2° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠220.6°.
Moon before apogee
10 days since point of perigee on 21 February 2054 at 07:51 in ♌ Leo 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 5 March 2054 at 16:18 in ♑ Capricorn.
The Moon is 402 384 km(250 030 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 2 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 875 km(252 199 mi).
Moon before descending node
8 days after ascending node on 22 February 2054 at 12:29 in ♍ Virgo the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 5 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 8 March 2054 at 13:36 in ♓ Pisces.
At 09:21 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach South declination of ∠-18.648°. This is the year's southernmost lunar standstill of 2054. Over the upcoming 14 days the lunar orbit is going to tilt northward to face maximum declination of ∠18.685° at the point of next northern standstill in ♊ Gemini on 17 March 2054 at 17:30.
In 6 days on 9 March 2054 at 12:46 in ♓ Pisces 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.
