Moon Phases in Rundu This Month

How to follow the Moon's phases in Rundu

The Moon calendar page for Rundu shows the current phase, illumination percentage, and Moon age, along with links to nearby days and the monthly calendar. These data points help you understand where the Moon sits in its cycle and whether it is approaching the crescent, quarter, full, or new phase.

Use this page as a quick starting point for tracking the Moon in Rundu, then move to the month page or a specific date page if you want broader detail on how the phases unfold over a given period.

When to use the Rundu Moon page

Use the Moon page for Rundu when you want a clear summary that combines the current Moon state, illumination percentage, moonrise and moonset times, and links to nearby days and months. This page is well suited for quick checks without having to dive into the full monthly calendar.

The month page shows the Moon's phases across a full month, while the date page shows Moon data for a specific day. The Rundu page therefore stays as a tidy entry point linking the current state, the monthly calendar, and the daily pages.

What factors appear in the Moon data?

Moon data on Rundu is built on a few simplified astronomy indicators — the current phase, illumination percentage, Moon age, and moonrise/moonset times in Rundu's local time. These indicators help read the Moon's state more clearly than relying on the phase name alone.

Additional information also appears, such as the astronomical constellation and the approximate distance to the Moon — elements that give broader context for the Moon's motion and apparent position, without changing the meaning of the phase or the illumination percentage shown.

How to use the Moon calendar in Rundu

Start by reading the current Moon summary at the top of the page, then check the illumination percentage, Moon age, and rise/set times. After that, use the nearby-day links or the monthly calendar button to follow how the phases shift over the month.

If you're looking up a specific day, head to the dated page. And if you want to review the whole month, the monthly calendar page is the better fit because it shows the sequence of phases with their corresponding Gregorian dates more clearly.

Moon FAQ

What is the moon phase today?

The site shows the current moon phase and illumination percentage live. The moon goes through eight phases over a 29.5-day cycle: New Moon, Waxing Crescent, First Quarter, Waxing Gibbous, Full Moon, Waning Gibbous, Last Quarter, Waning Crescent.

How illuminated is the moon today?

Moon illumination is calculated astronomically from the Sun-Moon-Earth angle. It ranges from 0% (new moon) to 100% (full moon), and is shown live based on your location.

What is the moon's age today?

Moon age is the number of days elapsed since the last new moon. It ranges from 0 to 29.5 days.

What time does the moon rise today?

Moonrise depends on your longitude. The site shows moonrise time in your local timezone once your location is detected.

What time does the moon set today?

Moonset depends on your longitude and latitude. The site shows moonset time in your local timezone.

When is the next full moon?

What's the difference between a constellation and a zodiac sign?

An astronomical constellation is a region of sky with official boundaries set by the International Astronomical Union (IAU); 88 in total, 13 along the ecliptic (including Ophiuchus). A zodiac sign is an astrological division assuming 12 equal segments (30° each) from the spring equinox — and it does NOT reflect the actual astronomical position of the Moon. We use IAU constellations, not zodiac signs.

How is the lunar cycle related to the Hijri calendar?

يَعتمد التقويم الهجري كلياً على دورة القمر. كل شهر هجري يَبدأ برؤية الهلال ويَستمر 29 أو 30 يومًا، فمجموع السنة الهجرية 354 أو 355 يومًا — أقصر من السنة الشمسية بـ 11 يومًا.

About the Month of Ramadan

What is Ramadan?

Ramadan is the 9th month of the Hijri lunar calendar and one of the most important months in Islam. The Quran was revealed in it, and Muslims fast from dawn to sunset throughout its days.

How is the start of Ramadan determined?

It is determined by sighting the crescent after sunset on the 29th of Shaban. If not sighted, Shaban is completed as 30 days and Ramadan begins the following day.

Why does Ramadan shift each Gregorian year?

The Hijri lunar year is about 10–11 days shorter than the Gregorian solar year, so Ramadan (along with every Islamic occasion) advances by the same amount annually in the Gregorian calendar.

Date Confirmation

The start of Ramadan is tied to sighting the crescent of 1 Ramadan. The date shown above is astronomically calculated per the arithmetic Hijri calendar and may differ by one day from the official announcement of each country’s religious authority.

How is Eid al-Fitr established

Eid al-Fitr is established by one of two ways: sighting the Shawwal crescent after sunset on the 29th day of Ramadan, or completing Ramadan as 30 days if the crescent is not seen.

Why does Eid al-Fitr advance each Gregorian year

The lunar Hijri year is about 10-11 days shorter than the Gregorian year, so Eid al-Fitr advances the same amount each year in the Gregorian calendar, cycling through all seasons every ~33 years.

Date Confirmation

Eid al-Fitr is tied to sighting the Shawwal crescent after completing 29 or 30 days of Ramadan. The date shown is calculated astronomically per the arithmetic Hijri calendar and may differ by one day from each country’s official announcement.

Want to know more about the Islamic New Year?

About the Hijri New Year

Start of the Islamic Calendar

The Hijri calendar is a lunar calendar officially adopted by Muslims during the reign of Caliph Umar ibn al-Khattab. Its starting point is the year of the Prophet Muhammad’s migration from Mecca to Medina, and it consists of 12 lunar months.

Muharram and the Sacred Months

Muharram is one of the four sacred months (Dhul-Qi‘dah, Dhul-Hijjah, Muharram, and Rajab). Islam honored it as the Arabs had before, and avoiding injustice and forbidden acts during it is especially emphasized.

The Day of Ashura

The tenth of Muharram is a virtuous day; the Prophet ﻺ fasted it in gratitude to Allah for saving Moses (peace be upon him). Fasting it together with the ninth (Tasu‘a) is recommended to differ from the People of the Book.

Date Verification

The Hijri New Year begins with the first day of Muharram. The date shown is astronomically calculated according to the tabular Hijri calendar; the official announcement may differ by one day depending on the local sighting of the Muharram crescent in each country.
