Moon is passing about ∠18° of ♒ Aquarius tropical zodiac sector.
3 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 3 days on 30 March 2073 at 11:04.
Pink Moon after 19 days
Next Full Moon is the Pink Moon of April 2073 after 19 days on 22 April 2073 at 01:54.
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 ∠1799"
Lunar disc appears visually 6.5% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1799" and ∠1919".
Lunation 905 / 1858
The Moon is 25 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 905 of Meeus index or 1858 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 17 hours and 58 minutes and it is 1 hour and 57 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 14 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 1 hour and 49 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠168.4°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠168.4° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠192.2°.
Moon before apogee
9 days since point of perigee on 23 March 2073 at 16:57 in ♍ Virgo the lunar orbit is getting widen while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 3 days until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 6 April 2073 at 05:19 in ♈ Aries.
The Moon is 398 531 km(247 636 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 3 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 406 521 km(252 600 mi).
Moon before descending node
11 days after ascending node on 21 March 2073 at 12:15 in ♍ Virgo 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 3 April 2073 at 11:42 in ♒ Aquarius.
3 days since the last southern standstill on 30 March 2073 at 05:47 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-19.120° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 11 days to face maximum declination of ∠19.238° at the point of next northern standstill on 14 April 2073 at 00:42 in ♋ Cancer.
In 5 days on 7 April 2073 at 14:14 in ♈ Aries 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.
