Previous main lunar phase is the New Moon before 6 days on 2 September 2035 at 01:59.
Moon rises in the morning and sets in the evening. It is visible toward the southwest in early evening.
Moon is passing first ∠3° of ♐ Sagittarius tropical zodiac sector.
Lunar disc appears visually 6.6% narrower than solar disc. Moon and Sun apparent angular diameters are ∠1783" and ∠1905".
Next Full Moon is the Harvest Moon of September 2035 after 9 days on 17 September 2035 at 14:23.
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 441 of Meeus index or 1394 from Brown series.
Length of current 441 lunation is 29 days, 11 hours and 7 minutes. It is 2 hours and 45 minutes shorter than next lunation 442 length.
Length of current synodic month is 1 hour and 37 minutes shorter than the mean length of synodic month, but it is still 4 hours and 32 minutes longer, compared to 21st century shortest.
This New Moon true anomaly is ∠46.4°. At beginning of next synodic month true anomaly will be ∠75°. The length of upcoming synodic months will keep increasing since the true anomaly gets closer to the value of New Moon at point of apogee (∠180°).
9 days after point of perigee on 30 August 2035 at 02:28 in ♋ Cancer. The lunar orbit is getting wider, while the Moon is moving outward the Earth. It will keep this direction for the next 2 days, until it get to the point of next apogee on 10 September 2035 at 23:26 in ♐ Sagittarius.
Moon is 402 019 km (249 803 mi) away from Earth on this date. Moon moves farther next 2 days until apogee, when Earth-Moon distance will reach 404 365 km (251 261 mi).
6 days after its ascending node on 1 September 2035 at 19:14 in ♌ Leo, the Moon is following the northern part of its orbit for the next 7 days, until it will cross the ecliptic from North to South in descending node on 16 September 2035 at 02:58 in ♓ Pisces.
6 days after beginning of current draconic month in ♌ Leo, the Moon is moving from the beginning to the first part of it.
10 days after previous North standstill on 28 August 2035 at 17:25 in ♊ Gemini, when Moon has reached northern declination of ∠18.744°. Next 2 days the lunar orbit moves southward to face South declination of ∠-18.755° in the next southern standstill on 11 September 2035 at 06:40 in ♑ Capricorn.
After 9 days on 17 September 2035 at 14:23 in ♓ Pisces, the Moon will be in Full Moon geocentric opposition with the Sun and this alignment forms next Sun-Earth-Moon syzygy.
