Why Chicago’s timings are its own
Chicago lies at 41.88° N, 87.63° W, and keeps America/Chicago time (UTC−06:00 today). Local solar noon — the middle of the daylight — falls at 11:33 by the clock, so every daylight division (Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and the day choghadiyas) is anchored there.
Daylight lasts 10 h 14 min today (Bengaluru: 11 h 38 min). The further a city is from the equator, the more its daylight — and with it the length of each Rahu Kaal or choghadiya — changes through the year.
Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana change at the same instant everywhere on Earth; only the local clock reading differs. The limb in effect at sunrise can still differ between cities on days when a change falls close to sunrise.
