Previous main lunar phase is the First Quarter before 4 days on 15 November 2064 at 20:14.
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 passing about ∠20° of ♈ Aries tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc appears visually 9.4% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1768" and ∠1943".
Next Full Moon is the Beaver Moon of November 2064 after 3 days on 24 November 2064 at 00:58.
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 11 days young. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the first to the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 802 of Meeus index or 1755 from Brown series.
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°).
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.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠14.9°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠33°.
Moon is at apogee at 08:27. It is 12 days after previous perigee on 7 November 2064 at 22:41 in ♎ Libra. Lunar orbit is going to narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth over the next 15 days, until point of next perigee on 6 December 2064 at 06:12 in ♏ Scorpio.
This apogee Moon is 405 800 km (252 152 mi) away from Earth. It is 392 km further than the mean apogee distance, but it is still 909 km closer than the farthest apogee of 21st century.
5 days after ascending node on 14 November 2064 at 16:38 in ♒ Aquarius. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following 8 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 29 November 2064 at 05:50 in ♌ Leo.
5 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♒ Aquarius, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.
9 days since the previous standstill on 11 November 2064 at 05:13 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-26.869°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 5 days to face maximum declination of ∠26.797° at the point of next northern standstill on 25 November 2064 at 15:41 in ♊ Gemini.
In 3 days on 24 November 2064 at 00:58 in ♊ Gemini the Moon is going to be in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
