Moon is passing about ∠15° of ♉ Taurus tropical zodiac sector.
7 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 7 days on 10 May 2091 at 08:36.
Strawberry Moon after 15 days
Next Full Moon is the Strawberry Moon of June 2091 after 15 days on 1 June 2091 at 17:31.
Moderate tide
There is medium ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at very acute angle, so their combined tidal force is moderate.
Apparent angular diameter ∠1776"
Lunar disc appears visually 6.6% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1776" and ∠1897".
Lunation 1129 / 2082
The Moon is 28 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 1129 of Meeus index or 2082 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 15 hours and 47 minutes and it is 2 hours and 13 minutes longer than the upcoming lunation's length. The lengths of the following synodic months are going to decrease with the lunar orbit true anomaly getting closer to the value it has at the point of New Moon at perigee (∠0° or ∠360°).
Lunation length longer than mean
The length of the current synodic month is 3 hours and 3 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠189.5°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠189.5° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠214.7°.
Moon after apogee
2 days since point of apogee on 15 May 2091 at 03:48 in ♈ Aries the lunar orbit is getting narrow while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 13 days until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 30 May 2091 at 19:30 in ♏ Scorpio.
The Moon is 403 527 km(250 740 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 13 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 361 863 km(224 851 mi).
Moon after descending node
5 days after descending node on 11 May 2091 at 22:03 in ♓ Pisces the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following 8 days until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 26 May 2091 at 06:27 in ♍ Virgo.
10 days since the last southern standstill on 6 May 2091 at 22:47 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-18.782° the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 4 days to face maximum declination of ∠18.883° at the point of next northern standstill on 21 May 2091 at 13:53 in ♊ Gemini.
In 1 day on 18 May 2091 at 13:07 in ♉ Taurus the Moon is going to be in a New Moon geocentric conjunction with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Moon-Earth syzygy alignment.
