Overall, the Moon rises in the east and sets in the west, due to Earth’s rotation. The exact location of where it rises/sets will depend on its phase, the time of year, as well as latitude. For example, in spring in the northern hemisphere, the new and full Moons will rise about east and set about in the west, but the first quarter will be more northeast/northwest, and the last quarter more southeast/southwest. The Moon is also moving east due to its own orbit, and therefore we see it has moved about 12 degrees more east than the same time the previous day. On average, the Moon rises about 50 minutes later each day, but latitude and longitude affects this, as well as time of year.
