Previous main lunar phase is the First Quarter before 1 day on 19 November 2099 at 17:17.
Moon rises in the afternoon and sets after midnight to early morning. It is visible to the southeast in early evening and it is up for most of the night.
Moon is passing about ∠19° of ♓ Pisces tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc appears visually 9.1% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1773" and ∠1943".
Next Full Moon is the Beaver Moon of November 2099 after 6 days on 27 November 2099 at 21:22.
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 9 days young. Earth's natural satellite is moving from the first to the middle part of current synodic month. This is lunation 1235 of Meeus index or 2188 from Brown series.
The length of the lunation is 29 days, 11 hours and 40 minutes. It is 2 hours and 7 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 1 hour and 4 minutes shorter than the mean synodic month length. It is 5 hours and 5 minutes longer compared to 21st century's shortest synodic month length.
At the beginning of the lunation cycle the true anomaly is ∠27.7°. At the beginning of next synodic month the true anomaly is going to be ∠49.8°.
10 days after point of perigee on 10 November 2099 at 19:35 in ♎ Libra. 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 November 2099 at 17:25 in ♓ Pisces.
The Moon is 404 324 km (251 235 mi) away from Earth and getting further over the next day until the point apogee when Earth-Moon distance is going to be 404 988 km (251 648 mi).
Moon is in ascending node in ♓ Pisces at 23:18 crossing the ecliptic from South to North to meet descending node 14 days later on 5 December 2099 at 21:04 in ♍ Virgo.
At 23:18 the Moon completes the previous draconic month and enters the new one.
6 days since the previous standstill on 15 November 2099 at 04:28 in ♐ Sagittarius when the Moon has reached South declination of ∠-28.455°, the lunar orbit is extending northward over the next 8 days to face maximum declination of ∠28.380° at the point of next northern standstill on 29 November 2099 at 16:41 in ♊ Gemini.
In 6 days on 27 November 2099 at 21:22 in ♉ Taurus 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.
