How this day differs

  • Sunrise 05:43 (yesterday 05:42), sunset 16:32 (yesterday 16:32), daylight 10 h 49 min (yesterday 10 h 50 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 12:17, yesterday 11:46; moonset 00:07 (next day), yesterday 23:12.
  • Shukla Ashtami holds at this sunrise (05:43) as at yesterday’s (05:42).
  • At 05:43 the Moon is in Shatabhisha (Dhanishta at 05:42 yesterday), having moved from Makara (Capricorn) into Kumbha (Aquarius); the yoga is Dhruva (yesterday Vriddhi).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 13:50–15:11 on Tuesday (daylight part 7 of 8) to 11:08–12:29 on Wednesday (part 5).

Guwahati lies at 26.18° N, 91.75° E; local solar noon is at 11:08. Against Bengaluru on the same date, sunrise here is 36 min earlier, sunset 77 min earlier and daylight 41 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.
