Moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset. It's part facing the Earth is completely in shadow.
Moon is passing first ∠3° of ♐ Sagittarius tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1962" and ∠1942".
Next Full Moon is the Cold Moon of December 2082 after 14 days on 5 December 2082 at 08:57.
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.
At 04:19 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1025 of Meeus index or 1978 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 10 hours and 51 minutes. It is 1 hour and 48 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°).
The length of the current synodic month is 1 hour and 53 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 16 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
The true anomaly is ∠13.3°. At the beginning of the next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠31°.
1 day after point of perigee on 19 November 2082 at 09:39 in ♏ Scorpio. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 11 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 1 December 2082 at 21:23 in ♈ Aries.
The Moon is 365 381 km (227 037 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 11 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 405 910 km (252 221 mi).
6 days after descending node on 13 November 2082 at 14:12 in ♌ Leo. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 5 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 26 November 2082 at 01:01 in ♒ Aquarius.
21 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♒ Aquarius, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
11 days since the previous standstill on 9 November 2082 at 00:08 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠27.510°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠-27.458° at the point of next southern standstill on 21 November 2082 at 22:04 in ♐ Sagittarius.
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
