How this day differs

  • Sunrise 07:20 (yesterday 07:19), sunset 18:04 (yesterday 18:04), daylight 10 h 45 min (yesterday 10 h 44 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 01:38 (next day), yesterday 00:43 (next day); moonset 12:33, yesterday 12:00.
  • At 07:20 the tithi is Krishna Ashtami; at yesterday’s sunrise (07:19) it was Krishna Saptami.
  • At 07:20 the Moon is in Hasta (Uttara Phalguni at 07:19 yesterday), in Kanya (Virgo); the yoga is Shobhana (yesterday Saubhagya).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 12:42–14:02 on Wednesday (daylight part 5 of 8) to 14:03–15:23 on Thursday (part 6).

Ahmedabad lies at 23.03° N, 72.59° E; local solar noon is at 12:42. Against Bengaluru on the same date, sunrise here is 39 min later, sunset 1 min later and daylight 38 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 21 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (43 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
