How this day differs

  • Sunrise 06:34 (yesterday 06:34), sunset 18:00 (yesterday 18:00), daylight 11 h 26 min (yesterday 11 h 26 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 10:40, yesterday 10:04; moonset 23:13, yesterday 22:25.
  • At 06:34 the tithi is Shukla Shashthi; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:34) it was Shukla Panchami.
  • At 06:34 the Moon is in Uttara Bhadrapada (Purva Bhadrapada at 06:34 yesterday), having moved from Kumbha (Aquarius) into Mina (Pisces); the yoga is Parigha (yesterday Variyan).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 12:17–13:43 on Wednesday (daylight part 5 of 8) to 13:43–15:09 on Thursday (part 6).

Chennai lies at 13.09° N, 80.28° E; local solar noon is at 12:17. Against Bengaluru on the same date, sunrise here is 11 min earlier, sunset 11 min earlier and daylight as long; 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.
