How this day differs

• Sunrise 06:29 (yesterday 06:28), sunset 17:14 (yesterday 17:14), daylight 10 h 45 min (yesterday 10 h 46 min).
• Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 14:03, yesterday 13:32; moonset 02:45 (next day), yesterday 01:47 (next day).
• At 06:29 the tithi is Shukla Dashami; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:28) it was Shukla Navami.
• The Moon is still in Purva Bhadrapada at 06:29, having moved from Kumbha (Aquarius) into Mina (Pisces); the yoga is Harshana (yesterday Vyaghata).
• Rahu Kaal moves from 13:12–14:32 on Thursday (daylight part 6 of 8) to 10:31–11:51 on Friday (part 4).

Lucknow lies at 26.84° N, 80.92° E; local solar noon is at 11:51. Against Bengaluru on the same date, sunrise here is 9 min later, sunset 35 min earlier and daylight 44 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.

Ekadashi, Purnima and Amavasya

• Devutthana Ekadashi: Ekadashi tithi from Fri 20 Nov 2026, 07:16 to Sat 21 Nov 2026, 06:32. Dwadashi ends before the sunrise after the Ekadashi day, leaving no Dwadashi for parana, so calendars differ: Smarta calendars keep the fast on Friday 20 November 2026 (today), Vaishnava calendars on Saturday 21 November 2026. Follow your own tradition. Ekadashi dates for 2026.

This page reports the tithi calculation and the sunrise rule. Fasting and festival days also follow regional and sectarian rules; when in doubt, follow your own tradition or temple calendar.

When each limb changes

Times are local in Lucknow (Asia/Kolkata). The first of each is in effect at sunrise; each next one begins where the previous ends. “Next day” means after midnight, before the next sunrise.
