How this day differs

  • Sunrise 06:18 (yesterday 06:18), sunset 17:19 (yesterday 17:18), daylight 11 h 01 min (yesterday 11 h 00 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 19:25, yesterday 18:20; moonset 07:36, yesterday 06:51.
  • At 06:18 the tithi is Krishna Dvitiya; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:18) it was Krishna Pratipada.
  • At 06:18 the Moon is in Magha (Pushya at 06:18 yesterday), having moved from Karka (Cancer) into Simha (Leo); the yoga is Saubhagya (yesterday Priti).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 09:03–10:25 on Saturday (daylight part 3 of 8) to 15:56–17:19 on Sunday (part 8).

Kolkata lies at 22.56° N, 88.36° E; local solar noon is at 11:48. Against Bengaluru on the same date, sunrise here is 28 min earlier, sunset 57 min earlier and daylight 29 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 23 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (44 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
