How this day differs

• Sunrise 07:08 (yesterday 07:07), sunset 18:07 (yesterday 18:06), daylight 10 h 59 min (yesterday 10 h 59 min).
• Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 18:30, yesterday 17:20; moonset 07:19, yesterday none.
• At 07:08 the tithi is Krishna Pratipada; at yesterday’s sunrise (07:07) it was Shukla Chaturdashi, and Shukla Purnima began and ended in between.
• At 07:08 the Moon is in Ardra (Rohini at 07:07 yesterday), having moved from Vrishabha (Taurus) into Mithuna (Gemini); the yoga is Shukla (yesterday Shubha).
• Rahu Kaal moves from 12:37–13:59 on Wednesday (daylight part 5 of 8) to 14:00–15:22 on Thursday (part 6).

Mumbai lies at 19.07° N, 72.88° E; local solar noon is at 12:37. Against Bengaluru on the same date, sunrise here is 30 min later, sunset 7 min later and daylight 23 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 22 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.
