Moon is passing about ∠10° of ♈ Aries tropical zodiac sector.
It is Hunter Moon
The Full Moon these days is the Hunter of October 2066.
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 ∠1868"
Lunar disc appears visually 2.6% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1868" and ∠1918".
Lunation 825 / 1778
The Moon is 14 days old and navigating through the middle part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 825 of Meeus index or 1778 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 11 hours and 55 minutes and it is 32 minutes longer than the upcoming lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decrease with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
Lunation length shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 49 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 20 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠272.1°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠272.1° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠304.7°.
Moon after perigee
5 days since point of perigee on 27 September 2066 at 12:48 in ♑ Capricorn the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 7 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 10 October 2066 at 18:32 in ♋ Cancer.
The Moon is 383 669 km(238 401 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 7 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 214 km(251 167 mi).
Moon before descending node
6 days after ascending node on 26 September 2066 at 15:21 in ♐ Sagittarius the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 6 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 10 October 2066 at 02:19 in ♋ Cancer.
7 days since the last southern standstill on 25 September 2066 at 13:22 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-24.274° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 5 days to face maximum declination of ∠24.153° at the point of next northern standstill on 8 October 2066 at 22:14 in ♊ Gemini.
