Moon is passing about ∠14° of ♋ Cancer tropical zodiac sector.

Apparent angular diameter ∠1773"

Lunar disc appears visually 8.1% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1773" and ∠1924".

Pink Moon after 6 days

Next Full Moon is the Pink Moon of April 2075 after 6 days on 1 April 2075 at 08:45.

Upcoming main Moon phases

The Moon is 8 days young. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the first part of current synodic month. This is lunation 930 of Meeus index or 1883 from Brown series.

Synodic month length 29.56 days

The length of the lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 31 minutes. It is 56 minutes shorter than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to increasing with the 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 46 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 6 hours and 16 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.

Lunar orbit position on

True anomaly ∠76.5°

At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠76.5°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠113.2°.

Moon after apogee

1 day after point of apogee on 23 March 2075 at 23:11 in ♊ Gemini. 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 4 April 2075 at 22:38 in ♏ Scorpio.

Distance to Moon 404 232 km

The Moon is 404 232 km (251 178 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 10 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 367 126 km (228 122 mi).

Moon before ascending node

13 days after descending node on 12 March 2075 at 03:46 in ♑ Capricorn. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following day, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 26 March 2075 at 01:58 in ♋ Cancer.

Draconic month

26 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♋ Cancer, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.

Moon at northern standstill

At 08:07 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach North declination of ∠22.138°. Over the next 13 days the lunar orbit is going to extend southward to face maximum declination of ∠-22.269° at the point of next standstill in ♑ Capricorn on 7 April 2075 at 15:33.

Syzygy in 6 days

In 6 days on 1 April 2075 at 08:45 in ♎ Libra the Moon is going to be in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
