Moon phase and lunation details
Moonrise and moonset
Moon rises at sunrise and sets at sunset. It's part facing the Earth is completely in shadow.
Moon in ♊ Gemini
Moon is passing about ∠21° of ♊ Gemini tropical zodiac sector.
Apparent angular diameter
Lunar disc is not visible from Earth. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1887" and ∠1889".
Strawberry Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Strawberry Moon of June 2086 after 15 days on 27 June 2086 at 00:04.
Upcoming main Moon phases
- First Quarter in Virgo ♍ on 19 June 2086 at 04:33
- Full Moon in Capricorn ♑ on 27 June 2086 at 00:04
- Last Quarter in Aries ♈ on 3 July 2086 at 20:10

Spring tide
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.
New lunation 1069 / 2022
At 11:12 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1069 of Meeus index or 2022 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.45 days
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 10 hours and 50 minutes. It is 1 hour and 46 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 shorter than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 1 hour and 54 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 15 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠62.5°
The true anomaly is ∠62.5°. At the beginning of the next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠95.5°.
Moon after perigee
4 days after point of perigee on 7 June 2086 at 01:37 in ♈ Aries. 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 19 June 2086 at 09:56 in ♎ Libra.
Distance to Moon 379 818 km
The Moon is 379 818 km (236 008 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next 7 days until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 212 km (251 166 mi).
Moon after descending node
1 day after descending node on 10 June 2086 at 21:57 in ♊ Gemini. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 13 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 25 June 2086 at 07:25 in ♐ Sagittarius.
Draconic month
13 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♐ Sagittarius, the Moon is navigating from the middle to the last part of the cycle.
Moon at northern standstill
At 06:00 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach North declination of ∠22.467°. Over the next 14 days the lunar orbit is going to extend southward to face maximum declination of ∠-22.460° at the point of next standstill in ♐ Sagittarius on 25 June 2086 at 15:51.
Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy
The Moon is in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
