How this day differs

  • Sunrise 06:19 (yesterday 06:18), sunset 17:49 (yesterday 17:50), daylight 11 h 31 min (yesterday 11 h 31 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 12:28, yesterday 11:49; moonset 00:24 (next day), yesterday 23:35.
  • At 06:19 the tithi is Shukla Ashtami; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:18) it was Shukla Saptami.
  • At 06:19 the Moon is in Dhanishta (Shravana at 06:18 yesterday), in Makara (Capricorn); the yoga is Vriddhi (yesterday Ganda).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 07:44–09:11 on Monday (daylight part 2 of 8) to 14:57–16:23 on Tuesday (part 7).

Bengaluru lies at 12.97° N, 77.59° E; local solar noon is at 12:04. Against Delhi on the same date, sunrise here is 26 min earlier, sunset 23 min later and daylight 49 min longer; the limbs end at the same clock times in both.

Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Brahma muhurta

Each daylight part is 1 h 26 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (46 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
