Moon is passing about ∠14° of ♓ Pisces tropical zodiac sector.
6 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 6 days on 11 March 2072 at 15:18.
Pink Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Pink Moon of April 2072 after 15 days on 3 April 2072 at 01:25.
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 ∠1775"
Lunar disc appears visually 8.2% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1775" and ∠1927".
Lunation 892 / 1845
The Moon is 28 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 892 of Meeus index or 1845 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 18 hours and 18 minutes and it is 2 hours and 43 minutes longer 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 34 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 29 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠190.8°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠190.8° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠217.4°.
Moon after apogee
2 days since point of apogee on 16 March 2072 at 05:25 in ♒ Aquarius the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 13 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 1 April 2072 at 01:31 in ♍ Virgo.
The Moon is 403 802 km(250 911 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 13 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 362 291 km(225 117 mi).
Moon in descending node
Moon is in descending node in ♓ Pisces at 21:48 crossing the ecliptic from North to South. Lunar position remains south of if for the upcoming 13 days until Moon's next ascending node later on 1 April 2072 at 07:46 in ♍ Virgo.
5 days since the last southern standstill on 12 March 2072 at 13:34 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-18.269° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 8 days to face maximum declination of ∠18.306° at the point of next northern standstill on 27 March 2072 at 02:22 in ♋ Cancer.
In 1 day on 19 March 2072 at 20:21 in ♓ Pisces 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.
