Moon phase and lunation details

6 days after New Moon

Previous main lunar phase is the New Moon before 6 days on 15 March 2067 at 08:29.

Moonrise and moonset

Moon rises in the morning and sets in the evening. It is visible toward the southwest in early evening.

Moon in ♊ Gemini

Moon is passing about ∠17° of ♊ Gemini tropical zodiac sector.

Apparent angular diameter ∠1794"

Lunar disc appears visually 7.1% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1794" and ∠1926".

Worm Moon after 9 days

Next Full Moon is the Worm Moon of March 2067 after 9 days on 30 March 2067 at 20:08.

Upcoming main Moon phases

  • First Quarter in Gemini ♊ on 22 March 2067 at 18:44
  • Full Moon in Libra ♎ on 30 March 2067 at 20:08
  • Last Quarter in Capricorn ♑ on 6 April 2067 at 23:37
  • New Moon in Aries ♈ on 13 April 2067 at 19:23

Neap tide

There is low ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at big angle, so their combined tidal force is weak.

Lunation 831 / 1784

The Moon is 6 days young. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the beginning to the first part of current synodic month. This is lunation 831 of Meeus index or 1784 from Brown series.

PreviousCurrent lunationNext

Synodic month length 29.45 days

The length of the lunation is 29 days, 10 hours and 55 minutes. It is 1 hour 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 1 hour and 49 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 20 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.

Lunar orbit position on

True anomaly ∠37.6°

At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠37.6°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠63.8°.

Moon before perigee

8 days after point of perigee on 13 March 2067 at 00:40 in ♒ Aquarius. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 3 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 24 March 2067 at 19:49 in ♋ Cancer.

Distance to Moon 399 495 km

The Moon is 399 495 km (248 235 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 3 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 668 km (251 449 mi).

Moon before descending node

12 days after ascending node on 9 March 2067 at 05:33 in ♐ Sagittarius. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following day, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 22 March 2067 at 03:17 in ♊ Gemini.

Draconic month

12 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♐ Sagittarius, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.

Moon at northern standstill

At 15:43 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach North declination of ∠23.428°. Over the next 14 days the lunar orbit is going to extend southward to face maximum declination of ∠-23.296° at the point of next standstill in ♐ Sagittarius on 4 April 2067 at 22:26.

Syzygy in 9 days

In 9 days on 30 March 2067 at 20:08 in ♎ Libra 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.
