Moon is passing about ∠19° of ♈ Aries tropical zodiac sector.
It is Hunter Moon
The Full Moon these days is the Hunter of October 2069.
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 ∠1966"
Lunar disc appears visually 2.5% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1966" and ∠1917".
Lunation 862 / 1815
The Moon is 15 days old and navigating through the middle part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 862 of Meeus index or 1815 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 16 hours and 28 minutes and it is 2 hours and 6 minutes shorter than the upcoming lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increase with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at apogee (∠180°).
Lunation length longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 3 hours and 44 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 19 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠133.4°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠133.4° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠161.2°.
Moon at perigee
Moon is at perigee at 22:56 about 12 days since last apogee on 19 September 2069 at 17:06 in ♏ Scorpio the lunar orbit is going to widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth over the upcoming 15 days until point of next apogee on 17 October 2069 at 05:28 in ♏ Scorpio.
This perigee Moon is 359 277 km(223 244 mi) away from Earth. It is 3 231 km closer than the mean perigee distance, but it is still 11 079 km further than the closest perigee of 21st century.
Moon before descending node
12 days after ascending node on 18 September 2069 at 23:24 in ♎ Libra the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following day until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 2 October 2069 at 12:51 in ♉ Taurus.
8 days since the last southern standstill on 22 September 2069 at 21:04 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-19.361° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 4 days to face maximum declination of ∠19.306° at the point of next northern standstill on 5 October 2069 at 17:07 in ♊ Gemini.
