Moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset. It's part facing the Earth is completely in shadow.
Moon is passing about ∠19° of ♎ Libra tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1933" and ∠1923".
Next Full Moon is the Hunter Moon of October 2083 after 14 days on 25 October 2083 at 14:36.
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 10:23 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1036 of Meeus index or 1989 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 9 hours and 52 minutes. This is the year's shortest synodic month of 2083. It is 18 minutes shorter 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 2 hours and 52 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 3 hours and 17 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
The true anomaly is ∠325°. At the beginning of the next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠343.6°.
9 days after point of apogee on 1 October 2083 at 17:48 in ♊ Gemini. The lunar orbit is getting narrow, while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 2 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 13 October 2083 at 13:59 in ♏ Scorpio.
The Moon is 370 808 km (230 409 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 2 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 362 926 km (225 512 mi).
5 days after descending node on 6 October 2083 at 02:37 in ♌ Leo. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 7 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 18 October 2083 at 19:32 in ♑ Capricorn.
19 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♒ Aquarius, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
9 days since the previous standstill on 2 October 2083 at 11:05 in ♊ Gemini when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠26.664°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 4 days to face maximum declination of ∠-26.557° at the point of next southern standstill on 15 October 2083 at 18:28 in ♐ Sagittarius.
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
