Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 2:44 PM – 3:54 PM |
| Yamaganda | 10:03 AM – 11:13 AM |
| Gulika Kaal | 12:24 PM – 1:34 PM |
Disha Shool: North. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Tuesday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 12:05 PM – 12:42 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 5:42 AM – 6:40 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 11:55 PM – 12:53 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).

Kshaya Tithi. Shukla 14 is skipped on this day — it begins at 10:54 AM and ends at 7:17 AM, 23 Dec, never touching a sunrise, so it is never any day’s Udaya Tithi.
