How this day differs

  • Sunrise 05:43 (yesterday 05:43), sunset 19:37 (yesterday 19:36), daylight 13 h 54 min (yesterday 13 h 52 min).
  • Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 10:58, yesterday 10:00; moonset 01:08 (next day), yesterday 00:37 (next day).
  • Shukla Shashthi holds at this sunrise (05:43) as at yesterday’s (05:43).
  • At 05:43 the Moon is in Shravana (Uttara Ashadha at 05:43 yesterday), having moved from Dhanu (Sagittarius) into Makara (Capricorn); the yoga is Ganda (yesterday Shula).
  • Rahu Kaal moves from 17:52–19:36 on Sunday (daylight part 8 of 8) to 07:27–09:11 on Monday (part 2).

Sydney lies at 33.87° S, 151.21° E; local solar noon is at 12:40, with 13 h 54 min of daylight against 11 h 31 min in Bengaluru. The limbs end at the same instants everywhere; this page gives Sydney’s local clock.

Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Brahma muhurta

Each daylight part is 1 h 44 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (56 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.
