Upcoming main Moon phases
- Last Quarter in Capricorn ♑ on 6 April 2067 at 23:37
- New Moon in Aries ♈ on 13 April 2067 at 19:23
- First Quarter in Cancer ♋ on 21 April 2067 at 14:15

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.
Lunation 831 / 1784
The Moon is 14 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 831 of Meeus index or 1784 from Brown series.
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 after apogee
5 days after point of apogee on 24 March 2067 at 19:49 in ♋ Cancer. The lunar orbit is getting narrow, while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 9 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 9 April 2067 at 05:49 in ♒ Aquarius.
Distance to Moon 392 051 km
The Moon is 392 051 km (243 609 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 9 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 368 765 km (229 140 mi).
Moon before ascending node
8 days after descending node on 22 March 2067 at 03:17 in ♊ Gemini. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 5 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 5 April 2067 at 05:55 in ♐ Sagittarius.
Draconic month
21 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♐ Sagittarius, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
Moon before southern standstill
8 days since the previous standstill on 21 March 2067 at 15:43 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠23.428°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 5 days to face maximum declination of ∠-23.296° at the point of next southern standstill on 4 April 2067 at 22:26 in ♐ Sagittarius.
Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
