How this day differs

  • Sunrise 07:58 (yesterday 07:59), sunset 16:22 (yesterday 16:20), daylight 8 h 23 min (yesterday 8 h 21 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 10:43, yesterday 10:27; moonset 02:39 (next day), yesterday 01:16 (next day).
  • At 07:58 the tithi is Shukla Ashtami; at yesterday’s sunrise (07:59) it was Shukla Saptami.
  • At 07:58 the Moon is in Ashwini (Revati at 07:59 yesterday), having moved from Mina (Pisces) into Mesha (Aries); the yoga is Siddha (yesterday Shiva).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 11:07–12:10 on Friday (daylight part 4 of 8) to 10:04–11:07 on Saturday (part 3).

London lies at 51.51° N, 0.13° W; local solar noon is at 12:10, with 8 h 23 min of daylight against 11 h 27 min in Bengaluru. The limbs end at the same instants everywhere; this page gives London’s local clock.

Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Brahma muhurta

Each daylight part is 1 h 03 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (34 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.

About this day

  • The day is Saturday, Shanivara (Saturn) in the tradition, from sunrise at 07:58 to the next sunrise at 07:57 (next day); the night lasts 15 h 36 min.
  • Shukla Navami begins after this sunrise and ends before the next one, so it never names a day (a kshaya tithi).
  • The 1 h 03 min day choghadiyas begin with Kaal and the 1 h 57 min night choghadiyas with Labh, as on every Saturday.
  • Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana change 8 times in all between this sunrise and the next.

Method and limits

Calculated with the live Panchang’s model and checked against Drik Panchang on 28 city-and-date combinations (times within 2.3 minutes, moonrise and moonset within 6.4). Observance of fasts and festivals follows regional rules. Amrit Kaal, Varjyam and Durmuhurta are not calculated yet.
