About this day
Daylight runs 11 hours 57 minutes, within six minutes of an even twelve — the windows are close to equal.
The tithi and nakshatra run past midnight and end after tomorrow's sunrise, so they name two civil days.
The first change today is the karana, at 12:17 pm.
Rahu kalam takes the fifth of the eight parts of daylight on a Wednesday, which puts it at 12:08 pm 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.
