Times in Durban (SAST). Moonrise/moonset use the centre of the Moon's disc without refraction, as standard panchangs do; a moonrise after midnight is shown with its date. Hills, buildings or cloud can delay the actual sighting by a few minutes.
Sunday, December 6, 2026: moonrise 2:39 AM, moonset 4:37 PM (SAST).
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.
