Sun & Moon
Lunar calendar
Auckland conventionally follows the Purnimanta reckoning, so the month there is Ashvina.
Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 2:44 PM – 4:22 PM |
| Yamaganda | 6:32 AM – 8:11 AM |
| Gulika Kaal | 9:49 AM – 11:27 AM |
Disha Shool: South. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Thursday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 12:40 PM – 1:32 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 5:02 AM – 5:45 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 12:44 AM – 1:27 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).
