About this day

Daylight lasts 12 hours and 1 minute, so each eighth of the day, the length of Rahu Kalam, is about 90 minutes.

Between this sunrise and the next: tithi and karana at 8:06 am, karana at 6:48 pm, yoga at 9:09 pm, nakshatra at 2:12 am Friday, tithi and karana at 5:36 am Friday. Shukla Pratipada begins and ends within the day, so no sunrise names it.

On a Thursday, Rahu Kalam is the sixth of the eight parts of daylight, from 1:28 pm in Vijayawada.
