because theres a time when the moon is closer to the earth called perigee
Since the Moon accompanies Earth, it basically has the same distance to the Sun as Earth does. Sometimes a bit closer, sometimes a bit farther, but this difference is insignificant. The Earth - and therefore the Moon as well - is closer to the Sun than Mars.
The Sun is at the same average distance from both the Earth and the Moon because the Earth-Moon system orbits the sun. However, since the Moon orbits around the Earth, it is sometimes closer to the Sun than is the Earth, and sometimes farther. But the difference is negligible since the Sun is more than 380 times as far from Earth as the Moon.
Mercury is always closer to the Sun than the moon.
The moon causes larger tides than the sun, even though the sun is much larger than the moon, because the moon is tremendously closer to the Earth than the sun is.
Moon
I believe it is because it the Earth spins and sometimes things seem closer than how they really are.
The moon appears bigger when it is closer to the horizon due to an optical illusion called the moon illusion. This occurs because our brain compares the size of the moon to objects on the horizon, making it seem larger in comparison.
Because the Moon is much nearer than the stars to the Earth.

The moon appears larger when it is closer to the horizon due to an optical illusion called the "moon illusion." This occurs because our brain compares the size of the moon to familiar objects on the horizon, making it seem larger in comparison.
The moon can appear bigger sometimes due to an optical illusion called the "moon illusion." This occurs when the moon is closer to the horizon, making it appear larger compared to when it is higher in the sky.
It is closer than most of those other objects.

the moon is closer to you
