Frequently asked questions

What time is moonrise in Melbourne today?

Wednesday, April 1, 2026: moonrise 6:43 PM, moonset 6:21 AM (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.
