Moon is leaving the last ∠2° of ♉ Taurus tropical zodiac sector and will enter ♊ Gemini later.
1 day after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 1 day on 30 October 2069 at 03:35.
Hunter Moon before 1 day
Next Full Moon is the Beaver Moon of November 2069 after 28 days on 28 November 2069 at 13:46.
Moderate tide
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.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1970"
Lunar disc appears visually 1.9% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1970" and ∠1933".
Lunation 863 / 1816
The Moon is 16 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 863 of Meeus index or 1816 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 18 hours and 34 minutes and it is 26 minutes shorter 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 longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 5 hours and 50 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 13 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠161.2°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠161.2° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠185.4°.
Moon after perigee
1 day since point of perigee on 30 October 2069 at 09:15 in ♉ Taurus the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 12 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 13 November 2069 at 07:36 in ♏ Scorpio.
The Moon is 363 776 km(226 040 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 12 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 406 514 km(252 596 mi).
Moon after descending node
1 day after descending node on 29 October 2069 at 23:39 in ♈ Aries the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 11 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 12 November 2069 at 11:24 in ♏ Scorpio.
11 days since the last southern standstill on 20 October 2069 at 03:47 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-19.268° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠19.271° at the point of next northern standstill on 2 November 2069 at 01:44 in ♊ Gemini.
In 13 days on 13 November 2069 at 22:38 in ♏ Scorpio the Moon is going to be in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
