Moon rises at sunset and sets at sunrise. It is visible all night and it is high in the sky around midnight.
Moon is passing about ∠24° of ♉ Taurus tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc appears visually 3.7% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1867" and ∠1938".
The Full Moon this days is the Beaver of November 2098.
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 1222 of Meeus index or 2175 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 13 hours and 2 minutes. It is 2 hours and 31 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 18 minutes longer than the mean synodic month length. It is 6 hours and 45 minutes shorter compared to 21st century's longest synodic month length.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠48.5°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠78.8°.
7 days after point of apogee on 2 November 2098 at 03:39 in ♒ Aquarius. The lunar orbit is getting narrow, while the Moon is moving towards the Earth. It will keep this direction over the next 6 days, until the Moon reaches the point of next perigee on 16 November 2098 at 08:08 in ♌ Leo.
The Moon is 383 969 km (238 587 mi) away from Earth and getting closer over the next 6 days until the point perigee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 370 207 km (230 036 mi).
3 days after ascending node on 6 November 2098 at 11:42 in ♈ Aries. The Moon is located north of the ecliptic over the following 10 days, until the lunar orbit crosses from North to South in descending node on 19 November 2098 at 13:21 in ♎ Libra.
3 days since the beginning of current draconic month in ♈ Aries, the Moon is navigating from the beginning to the first part of the cycle.
11 days since the previous standstill on 29 October 2098 at 00:40 in ♑ Capricorn when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-28.513°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 2 days to face maximum declination of ∠28.455° at the point of next northern standstill on 12 November 2098 at 08:09 in ♋ Cancer.
The Moon is in a Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and thus forming Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy alignment.
