Frequently asked questions

What time is moonrise in Leicester today?

Wednesday, August 5, 2026: moonrise 10:49 PM, moonset 1:49 PM (BST).

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.
