The figures
At 13:19 UTC on Wednesday, November 5, 2025 the Moon reaches 13°23' Taurus with the Sun opposite at 13°23' Scorpio. The Moon is 356,977 km away at that instant, 27,423 km inside the 384,400 km average, which is what makes this one a supermoon: the disc runs a few per cent wider and brighter than an ordinary full moon. The degree, 13°23' Taurus, places it in the second decan of Taurus, on the axis that runs across to Scorpio. It is the 21st of the 24 lunations dated for 2025, and the cycle it belongs to is set out in what a lunation is.

Why it is called the Beaver Moon
The Beaver Moon is the traditional North American and European name for the full Moon of November, and in 2025 it falls on November 5, 2025 at 13°23' Taurus. Those names follow the calendar month rather than the zodiac, which is why the 2025 one lands in Taurus at 13°23' Taurus while other years put it elsewhere.
