Moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. It is visible all night and it is high in the sky around midnight.
Moon is passing about ∠5° of ♓ Pisces tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc appears visually 1.4% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1874" and ∠1899".
The Full Moon this days is the Sturgeon of August 2083.
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.
The Moon is 15 days old. Earth's natural satellite is moving through the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 1034 of Meeus index or 1987 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 11 hours and 22 minutes. It is 1 hour and 6 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°).
The length of the current synodic month is 1 hour and 22 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 47 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠266.6°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠299.9°.
5 days after point of perigee on 22 August 2083 at 01:59 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 7 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 3 September 2083 at 22:33 in ♊ Gemini.
The Moon is 382 561 km (237 712 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 7 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 236 km (251 181 mi).
1 day after ascending node on 25 August 2083 at 13:34 in ♒ Aquarius. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following 12 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 8 September 2083 at 21:09 in ♌ Leo.
1 day since the beginning of current draconic month in ♒ Aquarius, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.
5 days since the previous standstill on 22 August 2083 at 06:59 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-26.925°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 8 days to face maximum declination of ∠26.867° at the point of next northern standstill on 5 September 2083 at 03:16 in ♊ Gemini.
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
