Moon is passing about ∠22° of ♋ Cancer tropical zodiac sector.
4 days after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 4 days on 7 November 2071 at 18:47.
Beaver Moon before 4 days
Next Full Moon is the Cold Moon of December 2071 after 24 days on 7 December 2071 at 06:57.
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.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1969"
Lunar disc appears visually 1.6% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1969" and ∠1939".
Lunation 888 / 1841
The Moon is 19 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 888 of Meeus index or 1841 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 14 hours and 10 minutes and it is 2 hours and 37 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 1 hour and 26 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 37 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠67.5°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠67.5° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠102.9°.
Moon at perigee
Moon is at perigee at 01:07 about 12 days since last apogee on 30 October 2071 at 19:30 in ♑ Capricorn 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 27 November 2071 at 16:12 in ♒ Aquarius.
This perigee Moon is 368 535 km(228 997 mi) away from Earth. It is 6 027 km closer than the mean perigee distance, but it is still 1 821 km further than the closest perigee of 21st century.
Moon before ascending node
8 days after descending node on 4 November 2071 at 02:46 in ♓ Pisces the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 4 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 17 November 2071 at 01:15 in ♍ Virgo.
1 day since the last northern standstill on 11 November 2071 at 00:34 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠18.336° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 11 days to face maximum declination of ∠-18.413° at the point of next southern standstill on 24 November 2071 at 07:52 in ♑ Capricorn.
In 9 days on 21 November 2071 at 18:59 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.
