Moon is leaving the last ∠2° of ♈ Aries tropical zodiac sector and will enter ♉ Taurus later.
It is Hunter Moon
The Full Moon these days is the Hunter of October 2060.
Spring tide
There is high Full Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1972"
Lunar disc appears visually 2.6% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1972" and ∠1922".
Lunation 751 / 1704
The Moon is 15 days old and navigating through the middle part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 751 of Meeus index or 1704 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 17 hours and 32 minutes and it is 1 hour and 18 minutes shorter than the upcoming lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increase with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at apogee (∠180°).
Lunation length longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 4 hours and 48 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 2 hours and 15 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠149.6°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠149.6° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠174.6°.
Moon at perigee
Moon is at perigee at 10:18 about 12 days since last apogee on 27 September 2060 at 17:42 in ♏ Scorpio the lunar orbit is going to widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth over the upcoming 14 days until point of next apogee on 25 October 2060 at 00:25 in ♏ Scorpio.
This perigee Moon is 357 605 km(222 205 mi) away from Earth. It is 4 903 km closer than the mean perigee distance, but it is still 12 751 km further than the closest perigee of 21st century.
Moon in ascending node
Moon is in ascending node in ♈ Aries at 13:33 crossing the ecliptic from South to North. Lunar position remains north of if for the upcoming 13 days until Moon's next descending node later on 24 October 2060 at 04:14 in ♎ Libra.
8 days since the last southern standstill on 2 October 2060 at 10:31 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-28.102° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 4 days to face maximum declination of ∠28.128° at the point of next northern standstill on 15 October 2060 at 01:32 in ♋ Cancer.
At 13:33 in the point ot ascending node the Moon is completing the last draconic month and is entering a new one while the lunar orbit is crossing the ecliptic from South to North.
