Moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. It is visible all night and it is high in the sky around midnight.
Moon is leaving the last ∠2° of ♍ Virgo tropical zodiac sector and will enter ♎ Libra later.
Lunar disc appears visually 3.9% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1855" and ∠1930".
The Full Moon this days is the Worm of March 2093.
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 1152 of Meeus index or 2105 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 12 hours and 12 minutes. It is 42 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°).
The length of the current synodic month is 32 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 37 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠43.9°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠73.1°.
6 days after point of apogee on 6 March 2093 at 14:56 in ♊ Gemini. The lunar orbit is getting narrow, while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 7 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 21 March 2093 at 10:04 in ♑ Capricorn.
The Moon is 386 308 km (240 041 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 7 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 369 821 km (229 796 mi).
4 days after ascending node on 9 March 2093 at 06:15 in ♌ Leo. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following 9 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 22 March 2093 at 12:52 in ♒ Aquarius.
4 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♌ Leo, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.
6 days since the previous standstill on 7 March 2093 at 08:10 in ♋ Cancer when the Moon has reached North declination of ∠20.943°, the lunar orbit is extending southward over the next 7 days to face maximum declination of ∠-21.054° at the point of next southern standstill on 20 March 2093 at 23:15 in ♑ Capricorn.
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
