Moon is passing about ∠22° of ♓ Pisces tropical zodiac sector.
6 days after Full Moon
Previous main lunar phase is the Full Moon before 6 days on 30 June 2072 at 10:21.
Strawberry Moon before 6 days
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2072 after 23 days on 30 July 2072 at 00:17.
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 ∠1773"
Lunar disc appears visually 6.3% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1773" and ∠1887".
Lunation 896 / 1849
The Moon is 20 days old and navigating from the middle to the last part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 896 of Meeus index or 1849 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 7 hours and 59 minutes and it is 34 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 4 hours and 45 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 24 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠313.1°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠313.1° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠333.8°.
Moon after apogee
1 day since point of apogee on 5 July 2072 at 05:53 in ♓ Pisces the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 10 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 17 July 2072 at 07:53 in ♌ Leo.
The Moon is 404 352 km(251 253 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 10 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 360 898 km(224 252 mi).
Moon after descending node
1 day after descending node on 5 July 2072 at 13:03 in ♓ Pisces the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 12 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 18 July 2072 at 20:41 in ♍ Virgo.
6 days since the last southern standstill on 30 June 2072 at 01:20 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-18.704° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 7 days to face maximum declination of ∠18.668° at the point of next northern standstill on 14 July 2072 at 10:48 in ♋ Cancer.
In 9 days on 15 July 2072 at 17:56 in ♋ Cancer 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.
