Moon phase and lunation details
Moonrise and moonset
Moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. It is visible all night and it is high in the sky around midnight.
Moon in ♉ Taurus
Moon is leaving the last ∠1° of ♉ Taurus tropical zodiac sector and will enter ♊ Gemini later.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1807"
Lunar disc appears visually 7.3% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1807" and ∠1943".
It is Beaver Moon
The Full Moon this days is the Beaver of November 2075.
Upcoming main Moon phases
- Last Quarter in Virgo ♍ on 30 November 2075 at 19:22
- New Moon in Sagittarius ♐ on 7 December 2075 at 23:03
- First Quarter in Pisces ♓ on 14 December 2075 at 14:37

Spring tide
There is high Full Moon ocean tide on this date. Combined Sun and Moon gravitational tidal force working on Earth is strong, because of the Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
Lunation 938 / 1891
The Moon is 14 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 938 of Meeus index or 1891 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.48 days
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 11 hours and 28 minutes. It is 17 minutes longer than the next lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decreasing with the 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 1 hour and 16 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 53 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠316.5°
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠316.5°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠337.3°.
Moon before perigee
11 days after point of perigee on 11 November 2075 at 05:25 in ♐ Sagittarius. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 4 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 27 November 2075 at 06:17 in ♋ Cancer.
Distance to Moon 396 717 km
The Moon is 396 717 km (246 509 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 4 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 361 km (251 880 mi).
Moon before ascending node
10 days after descending node on 11 November 2075 at 22:42 in ♐ Sagittarius. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 3 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 25 November 2075 at 12:09 in ♋ Cancer.
Draconic month
24 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 before northern standstill
10 days since the previous standstill on 12 November 2075 at 07:45 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-23.417°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 3 days to face maximum declination of ∠23.487° at the point of next northern standstill on 26 November 2075 at 00:59 in ♋ Cancer.
Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
