How this day differs

• Sunrise 06:48 (yesterday 06:47), sunset 16:33 (yesterday 16:32), daylight 9 h 45 min (yesterday 9 h 45 min).
• Between this sunrise and the next: moonrise 16:32, yesterday 15:22; moonset 06:58, yesterday none.
• At 06:48 the tithi is Shukla Purnima; at yesterday’s sunrise (06:47) it was Shukla Chaturdashi.
• At 06:48 the Moon is in Mrigashira (Rohini at 06:47 yesterday), having moved from Vrishabha (Taurus) into Mithuna (Gemini); the yoga is Shukla (yesterday Shubha).
• Rahu Kaal moves from 11:40–12:53 on Wednesday (daylight part 5 of 8) to 12:53–14:06 on Thursday (part 6).

Tokyo lies at 35.68° N, 139.65° E; local solar noon is at 11:40, with 9 h 45 min of daylight against 11 h 22 min in Bengaluru. The limbs end at the same instants everywhere; this page gives Tokyo’s local clock.

Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Abhijit and Brahma muhurta

Each daylight part is 1 h 13 min today; the weekday picks which part is Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda or Gulika, which panchangas avoid for new work, while Abhijit (39 min) and Brahma muhurta count as favourable by tradition. Some panchangas reckon Brahma muhurta with fixed 48-minute muhurtas.

Ekadashi, Purnima and Amavasya

• Margashirsha Purnima: Purnima tithi from Wed 23 Dec 2026, 14:18 to Thu 24 Dec 2026, 10:28. Purnima is in effect at sunrise. Vrat and puja days can fall on the previous day where the rule looks at moonrise, evening or midday instead. Purnima 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 Tokyo (Asia/Tokyo). 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.

About this day

• The day is Thursday, Guruvara (Jupiter) in the tradition, from sunrise at 06:48 to the next sunrise at 06:48 (next day); the night lasts 14 h 16 min.
• Krishna Pratipada begins after this sunrise and ends before the next one, so it never names a day (a kshaya tithi).
• The 1 h 13 min day choghadiyas begin with Shubh and the 1 h 47 min night choghadiyas with Amrit, as on every Thursday.
• 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.
