How this day differs

  • Sunrise 05:16 (yesterday 05:15), sunset 18:51 (yesterday 18:51), daylight 13 h 35 min (yesterday 13 h 35 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 15:22, yesterday 14:18; moonset 02:27 (next day), yesterday 01:41 (next day).
  • At 05:16 the tithi is Shukla Ekadashi; at yesterday’s sunrise (05:15) it was Shukla Dashami.
  • At 05:16 the Moon is in Ashwini (Revati at 05:15 yesterday), having moved from Mina (Pisces) into Mesha (Aries); the yoga is Shiva (yesterday Parigha).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 08:39–10:21 on Saturday (daylight part 3 of 8) to 17:09–18:51 on Sunday (part 8).

São Paulo lies at 23.55° S, 46.63° W; local solar noon is at 12:04, with 13 h 35 min of daylight against 11 h 22 min in Bengaluru. The limbs end at the same instants everywhere; this page gives São Paulo’s local clock.

Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Brahma muhurta

Each daylight part is 1 h 42 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (54 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
