What is the position and shape of the moon at 8 o'clock in the long summer night?

If you want a universal answer, I'm sorry it's impossible. There is a simple reason. The 24 solar terms are determined by the position of the sun and have nothing to do with the moon phase. We can also clearly feel this in our daily life. Is the date of the Spring Festival different every year? This is the deviation between the solar calendar and the yin and yang calendar.

Of course, it is easy to find the answer that needs a specific year. For example, in the long summer of 20 16, it is March 29, and the moon will just rise from the east before sunrise, which is basically invisible unless experienced observers wait in places with excellent conditions. So you can't find the moon at eight o'clock in the afternoon.

What are the factors related to the specific situation?

For a certain year, in fact, only the moon phase can be queried. For a specific moon phase, the orientation of the moon at a fixed time is certain.

At eight o'clock in the afternoon, the moons on the third and fourth days just set in the west, the moons on the seventh and eighth days hung in the southwest sky, the full moon on the tenth day hung in the south, and the full moon on the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar just rose.

As for the shape of the moon, it is directly determined by its phase.
