Moon is passing about ∠8° of ♋ Cancer tropical zodiac sector.
6 days after Last Quarter
Previous main lunar phase is the Last Quarter before 6 days on 15 July 2093 at 10:54.
Sturgeon Moon after 16 days
Next Full Moon is the Sturgeon Moon of August 2093 after 16 days on 7 August 2093 at 00:23.
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 ∠1770"
Lunar disc appears visually 6.5% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1770" and ∠1889".
Lunation 1156 / 2109
The Moon is 27 days old and navigating from the second to the final part of the current synodic month. This is lunation 1156 of Meeus index or 2109 from Brown series.
The length of this lunation is 29 days, 15 hours and 31 minutes and it is 13 minutes longer than the upcoming lunation's length. This is the year's longest synodic month of 2093. 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 2 hours and 47 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 4 hours and 16 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
Lunar orbit details for
True anomaly ∠167.5°
The true anomaly of the Moon orbit at the beginning of this lunation cycle is ∠167.5° and at the beginning of the next lunar synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠190.3°.
Moon before apogee
12 days since point of perigee on 8 July 2093 at 18:17 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 22 July 2093 at 09:07 in ♋ Cancer.
The Moon is 404 997 km(251 653 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next day until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 406 411 km(252 532 mi).
Moon before ascending node
12 days after descending node on 9 July 2093 at 06:40 in ♑ Capricorn the Moon is positioned south of the ecliptic over the following day until the lunar crosses the ecliptic again from South to North in ascending node on 23 July 2093 at 01:17 in ♋ Cancer.
At 21:21 the Moon is meeting its standstill point to reach North declination of ∠21.635°. Over the upcoming 14 days the lunar orbit is going to tilt southward to face maximum declination of ∠-21.651° at the point of next southern standstill in ♑ Capricorn on 4 August 2093 at 19:32.
In 2 days on 23 July 2093 at 12:36 in ♌ Leo 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.
