| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16時03分 12月31日 (日) | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon |  78° | -36.8° |
| 17時07分 12月31日 (日) | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon | 73° | -23.5° |

| 18時59分 12月31日 (日) | Rising | Moonrise Rising, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase will make the moon so dim that it will be extremely difficult to view until moon gets higher in the sky or the total phase ends. | 63° | -0.2° |
| 19時02分 12月31日 (日) | Maximum in Pretoria This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Pretoria. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Pretoria because the Moon is below the horizon at that time. Since the Moon is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to East-northeast for the best view of the eclipse. | 63° | 0.2° | |
| 19時27分 12月31日 (日) | Total Eclipse ends Total moon eclipse ends. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to East-northeast. | 60° | 4.7° | |
| 20時36分 12月31日 (日) | Partial Eclipse ends Partial moon eclipse ends. | 51° | 17.1° | |
| 21時40分 12月31日 (日) | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. | 41° | 27.3° |
How to use altitude & direction to find in the sky
The curvature of the shadow's path and the apparent rotation of the Moon's disk is due to the Earth's rotation.
