Upcoming main Moon phases
- First Quarter in Libra ♎ on 4 July 2090 at 10:37
- Full Moon in Capricorn ♑ on 11 July 2090 at 17:02
- Last Quarter in Aries ♈ on 19 July 2090 at 20:16

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 1119 / 2072
At 17:11 on this date the Moon completes the old and enters a new synodic month with lunation 1119 of Meeus index or 2072 from Brown series.
Synodic month length 29.34 days
29 days, 8 hours and 8 minutes is the length of new lunation 1119. It is 28 minutes longer than next lunation 1120 length.
Lunation length shorter than mean
Length of current synodic month is 4 hours and 36 minutes shorter than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 1 hour and 33 minutes longer, compared to 21st century shortest.
Lunar orbit position on
True anomaly ∠310°
This lunation true anomaly is ∠310°. At the beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠331.5°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep decreasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
Moon before perigee
8 days after point of apogee on 19 June 2090 at 00:40 in ♓ Pisces. The lunar orbit is getting closer, while the Moon is moving inward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next 3 days, until it get to the point of next perigee on 30 June 2090 at 23:26 in ♌ Leo.
Distance to Moon 376 727 km
Moon is 376 727 km (234 087 mi) away from Earth on this date. Moon moves closer next 3 days until perigee, when Earth-Moon distance will reach 366 238 km (227 570 mi).
Moon before ascending node
7 days after its descending node on 19 June 2090 at 18:49 in ♓ Pisces, the Moon is following the southern part of its orbit for the next 5 days, until it will cross the ecliptic from South to North in ascending node on 3 July 2090 at 01:54 in ♍ Virgo.
Draconic month
21 days after beginning of current draconic month in ♍ Virgo, the Moon is moving from the second to the final part of it.
Moon in northern standstill
At 08:45 on this date the Moon is meeting its North standstill point, when it will reach northern declination of ∠18.446°. Next 12 days the lunar orbit will move in opposite southward direction to face South declination of ∠-18.430° in its southern standstill point on 10 July 2090 at 07:05 in ♑ Capricorn.
Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy
The Moon is in New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun on this date and this alignment forms Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy.
