About this day

Daylight runs 11 hours 29 minutes — 31 minutes shorter than an even twelve, so every window below is stretched narrower than at the equinox.

The first change today is the yoga, at 8:28 am.

Rahu kalam takes the fourth of the eight parts of daylight on a Friday, which puts it at 11:00 am here.

Rahu kalam, yamagandam and gulikai · how each value is calculated · why the day starts at sunrise

How this was computed
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.
