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 3 hours and 44 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 19 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠144°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠144° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠170.1°.
Moon before perigee
11 days since point of apogee on 31 March 2074 at 02:22 in ♉ Taurus the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next day until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 12 April 2074 at 14:37 in ♎ Libra.
The Moon is 365 458 km(227 085 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next day until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 358 026 km(222 467 mi).
Moon after ascending node
4 days after ascending node on 6 April 2074 at 16:25 in ♌ Leo the Moon is positioned north of the ecliptic over the following 7 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from North to South in descending node on 19 April 2074 at 03:12 in ♒ Aquarius.
7 days since the last northern standstill on 4 April 2074 at 08:53 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠20.533° the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 5 days to face maximum declination of ∠-20.642° at the point of next southern standstill on 17 April 2074 at 01:07 in ♑ Capricorn.
