Explain this to me please?

So, one scene in my story has our protagonist going out to sit on the back side of the moon away from the sun, when it is like that, to ponder her fate. So, in reading about our galaxy, I had been under the impression that we were in one arm of the disk of our spiral galaxy relatively close to the centerline.

Either I was mistaken about our closeness to the center line or we are like totally somewhere else.
