How this day differs

  • Sunrise 06:16 (yesterday 06:16), sunset 17:03 (yesterday 17:02), daylight 10 h 47 min (yesterday 10 h 47 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 01:26 (next day), yesterday 00:32 (next day); moonset 12:04, yesterday 11:29.
  • At 06:16 the tithi is Krishna Navami; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:16) it was Krishna Ashtami.
  • At 06:16 the Moon is in Chitra (Hasta at 06:16 yesterday), having moved from Kanya (Virgo) into Tula (Libra); the yoga is Atiganda (yesterday Shobhana).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 13:00–14:21 on Thursday (daylight part 6 of 8) to 10:19–11:39 on Friday (part 4).

Kolkata lies at 22.56° N, 88.36° E; local solar noon is at 11:39. Against Bengaluru on the same date, sunrise here is 25 min earlier, sunset 61 min earlier and daylight 36 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.
