About this day
Daylight runs 11 hours 53 minutes — 7 minutes shorter than an even twelve, so every window below is stretched narrower than at the equinox.
The tithi runs past midnight and ends after tomorrow's sunrise, so it names two civil days.
The first change today is the nakshatra, at 6:47 am.
Rahu kalam takes the fourth of the eight parts of daylight on a Friday, which puts it at 10:38 am here.
Rahu kalam, yamagandam and gulikai · how each value is calculated · why the day starts at sunrise
Swiss Ephemeris, Lahiri ayanamsha, at Bengaluru's own horizon. The day runs sunrise to sunrise, so the limb named here is the one running at sunrise. Windows are eighths of the daylight.
