Moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset. It's part facing the Earth is completely in shadow.
Moon in ♏ Scorpio
Moon is passing about ∠12° of ♏ Scorpio tropical zodiac sector.
Apparent angular diameter
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1967" and ∠1937".
Beaver Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Beaver Moon of November 2064 after 15 days on 24 November 2064 at 00:58.
Upcoming main Moon phases
- First Quarter in Aquarius ♒ on 15 November 2064 at 20:14
- Full Moon in Gemini ♊ on 24 November 2064 at 00:58
- Last Quarter in Virgo ♍ on 1 December 2064 at 15:00

Spring tide
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.
New lunation 802 / 1755
At 19:45 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 802 of Meeus index or 1755 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.45 days
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 10 hours and 44 minutes. It is 2 hours and 2 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°).
Lunation length shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 2 hours shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 9 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠14.9°
The true anomaly is ∠14.9°. At the beginning of the next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠33°.
Moon after perigee
1 day after point of perigee on 7 November 2064 at 22:41 in ♎ Libra. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 11 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 20 November 2064 at 08:27 in ♈ Aries.
Distance to Moon 364 473 km
The Moon is 364 473 km (226 473 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 11 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 800 km (252 152 mi).
Moon before ascending node
6 days after descending node on 2 November 2064 at 05:22 in ♌ Leo. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 6 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 14 November 2064 at 16:38 in ♒ Aquarius.
Draconic month
20 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♒ Aquarius, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
Moon before southern standstill
10 days since the previous standstill on 29 October 2064 at 10:35 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠26.938°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 2 days to face maximum declination of ∠-26.869° at the point of next southern standstill on 11 November 2064 at 05:13 in ♐ Sagittarius.
Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
