Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 1:44 PM – 3:18 PM |
| Yamaganda | 5:57 AM – 7:31 AM |
| Gulika Kaal | 9:04 AM – 10:37 AM |
Disha Shool: South. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Thursday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 11:46 AM – 12:36 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 4:22 AM – 5:08 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 11:48 PM – 12:33 AM (next day) | Vedic midnight — the middle of the night, which is not clock midnight. |
Amrit Kaal is not published. It needs the per-nakshatra amrit ghati table, which is a sourced traditional table rather than a derivation — an unverified version would put wrong muhurat timings on an indexed page (plan 6.4).

These will link through to /festivals/{slug}-{year}/ once the festival inversion index exists (plan 7.7).
Kshaya Tithi. Krishna 4 is skipped on this day — it begins at 8:37 AM and ends at 5:40 AM, 30 Oct, never touching a sunrise, so it is never any day’s Udaya Tithi.
