Moon is passing first ∠3° of ♋ Cancer tropical zodiac sector.
Buck Moon after 14 days
Next Full Moon is the Buck Moon of July 2074 after 14 days on 8 July 2074 at 17:05.
Spring tide
There is high New Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
Apparent angular diameter
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1790" and ∠1888".
New lunation 921 / 1874
At 13:38 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 921 of Meeus index or lunation 1874 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 28 minutes. It is 1 hour and 36 minutes longer than the next 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 44 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 6 hours and 19 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠218.8°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit is ∠218.8° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠250.9°.
Moon after apogee
3 days since point of apogee on 20 June 2074 at 21:28 in ♉ Taurus the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 12 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 6 July 2074 at 14:26 in ♐ Sagittarius.
The Moon is 400 481 km(248 847 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 12 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 362 554 km(225 281 mi).
Moon before ascending node
12 days after descending node on 12 June 2074 at 10:42 in ♒ Aquarius the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 2 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 26 June 2074 at 23:07 in ♋ Cancer.
13 days since the last southern standstill on 10 June 2074 at 21:20 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-20.986° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠21.016° at the point of next northern standstill on 25 June 2074 at 05:18 in ♋ Cancer.
