Previous main lunar phase is the New Moon before 6 days on 27 March 2093 at 03:18.
Moon rises in the morning and sets in the evening. It is visible toward the southwest in early evening.
Moon is leaving the last ∠3° of ♊ Gemini tropical zodiac sector and will enter ♋ Cancer later.
Lunar disc appears visually 8.1% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1770" and ∠1919".
Next Full Moon is the Pink Moon of April 2093 after 9 days on 11 April 2093 at 16:35.
There is low ocean tide on this date. Sun and Moon gravitational forces are not aligned, but meet at big angle, so their combined tidal force is weak.
The Moon is 6 days young. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the beginning to the first part of current synodic month. This is lunation 1153 of Meeus index or 2106 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 12 hours and 54 minutes. It is 1 hour and 1 minute 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 10 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 6 hours and 53 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠73.1°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠109.2°.
12 days after point of perigee on 21 March 2093 at 10:04 in ♑ Capricorn. The lunar orbit is getting widen, while the Moon is moving away from the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next day, until the Moon reaches the point of next apogee on 3 April 2093 at 11:21 in ♋ Cancer.
The Moon is 405 065 km (251 696 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next day until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 205 km (251 161 mi).
10 days after descending node on 22 March 2093 at 12:52 in ♒ Aquarius. The Moon is located south of the ecliptic over the following 2 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from South to North in ascending node on 5 April 2093 at 10:03 in ♌ Leo.
24 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♌ Leo, the Moon is navigating from the second to the final part of the cycle.
12 days since the previous standstill on 20 March 2093 at 23:15 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-21.054°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next day to face maximum declination of ∠21.174° at the point of next northern standstill on 3 April 2093 at 16:04 in ♋ Cancer.
In 9 days on 11 April 2093 at 16:35 in ♎ Libra the Moon is going to be in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming the next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
