Abstract Shallow moonquakes have been considered unique due to their large magnitudes and affinities with intraplate earthquakes. However, the small number of detections (<80 events) has prevented detailed characterization. In this study, I identified a pair of repeating shallow moonquakes by analyzing a recently updated moonquake data set. Relative‐phase assessment revealed that these events exhibit a consistent fault‐slip direction despite their occurrence at opposite tidal phases. This differs from what was observed for repeating deep moonquakes, which are closely related to tides, implying that tidal stress does not dominantly control fault‐slip initiation of the repeating shallow moonquakes. Also, the identified repeating shallow moonquakes exhibit a similar relationship between seismic moment and the spatial scale of the slip area to earthquakes. This may indicate that earthquake‐like fault physics operates on the Moon, albeit with a different driving mechanism than on Earth.
