Synodic month length 29.69 days

The length of the lunation is 29 days, 16 hours and 38 minutes. It is 1 hour and 47 minutes longer than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decreasing with the 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 54 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 9 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.

Moon before southern standstill

10 days since the previous standstill on 26 October 2059 at 00:58 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠27.221°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 4 days to face maximum declination of ∠-27.235° at the point of next southern standstill on 9 November 2059 at 16:49 in ♑ Capricorn.

Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy

The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
