Previous main lunar phase is the First Quarter before 5 days on 6 September 2057 at 07:18.
Moon rises in the afternoon and sets after midnight to early morning. It is visible to the southeast in early evening and it is up for most of the night.
Moon is leaving the last ∠2° of ♒ Aquarius tropical zodiac sector and will enter ♓ Pisces later.
Lunar disc appears visually 1% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1925" and ∠1907".
Next Full Moon is the Harvest Moon of September 2057 after 1 day on 13 September 2057 at 02:53.
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.
The Moon is 13 days young. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the first to the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 713 of Meeus index or 1666 from Brown series.
Length of current 713 lunation is 29 days, 12 hours and 6 minutes. It is 47 minutes longer than next lunation 714 length.
Length of current synodic month is 38 minutes shorter than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 5 hours and 31 minutes longer, compared to 21st century shortest.
This lunation true anomaly is ∠255.9°. At the beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠291.1°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep decreasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
2 days after point of perigee on 8 September 2057 at 19:57 in ♑ Capricorn. The lunar orbit is getting wider, while the Moon is moving outward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next 9 days, until it get to the point of next apogee on 21 September 2057 at 02:28 in ♋ Cancer.
Moon is 372 359 km (231 373 mi) away from Earth on this date. Moon moves farther next 9 days until apogee, when Earth-Moon distance will reach 404 133 km (251 117 mi).
4 days after its descending node on 7 September 2057 at 10:33 in ♑ Capricorn, the Moon is following the southern part of its orbit for the next 9 days, until it will cross the ecliptic from South to North in ascending node on 20 September 2057 at 21:22 in ♊ Gemini.
17 days after beginning of current draconic month in ♊ Gemini, the Moon is moving from the second to the final part of it.
3 days after previous South standstill on 8 September 2057 at 05:28 in ♑ Capricorn, when Moon has reached southern declination of ∠-23.933°. Next 10 days the lunar orbit moves northward to face North declination of ∠24.051° in the next northern standstill on 21 September 2057 at 22:51 in ♋ Cancer.
After 1 day on 13 September 2057 at 02:53 in ♓ Pisces, the Moon will be in Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and this alignment forms next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy.
