Lunar disc appears visually 0.3% wider than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1926" and ∠1921".
Next Full Moon is the Hunter Moon of October 2095 after 3 days on 13 October 2095 at 09:30.
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 10 days young. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the first to the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 1184 of Meeus index or 2137 from Brown series.
Length of current 1184 lunation is 29 days, 17 hours and 38 minutes. It is 44 minutes shorter than next lunation 1185 length.
Length of current synodic month is 4 hours and 54 minutes longer than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 2 hours and 9 minutes shorter, compared to 21st century longest.
This lunation true anomaly is ∠168.3°. At the beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠192.1°. 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°).
9 days after point of apogee on 29 September 2095 at 20:21 in ♎ Libra. 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 13 October 2095 at 09:25 in ♈ Aries.

3 days after previous South standstill on 6 October 2095 at 09:24 in ♑ Capricorn, when Moon has reached southern declination of ∠-25.437°. Next 9 days the lunar orbit moves northward to face North declination of ∠25.525° in the next northern standstill on 18 October 2095 at 21:15 in ♋ Cancer.
After 3 days on 13 October 2095 at 09:30 in ♈ Aries, the Moon will be in Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and this alignment forms next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy.
