Frequently asked questions

What time is moonrise in Melbourne today?

Friday, January 9, 2026: moonrise none (next 12:15 AM, Jan 10), moonset 12:06 PM (AEDT).

Why can't I see the Moon exactly at moonrise time?

Moonrise is when the Moon's centre crosses a flat horizon. Buildings, trees, hills or haze near the horizon delay the first sighting, often by 10–20 minutes — for Karwa Chauth or Sankashti, wait until the Moon is clearly visible.
