How this day differs

  • Sunrise 06:07 (yesterday 06:07), sunset 18:39 (yesterday 18:39), daylight 12 h 32 min (yesterday 12 h 32 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 19:18, yesterday 18:42; moonset 06:43, yesterday none.
  • At 06:07 the tithi is Krishna Pratipada; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:07) it was Shukla Purnima.
  • At 06:07 the Moon is in Shatabhisha (Dhanishta at 06:07 yesterday), having moved from Makara (Capricorn) into Kumbha (Aquarius); the yoga is Atiganda (yesterday Shobhana).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 15:31–17:05 on Tuesday (daylight part 7 of 8) to 12:23–13:57 on Wednesday (part 5).

Bengaluru lies at 12.97° N, 77.59° E; local solar noon is at 12:23. Against Delhi on the same date, sunrise here is 16 min later, sunset 18 min earlier and daylight 34 min shorter; the limbs end at the same clock times in both.

Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Brahma muhurta

Each daylight part is 1 h 34 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (50 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
