Sun & Moon
Lunar calendar
Ipoh conventionally follows the Amanta reckoning, so the month there is Sravana.
Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 11:46 AM – 1:17 PM |
| Yamaganda | 4:18 PM – 5:49 PM |
| Gulika Kaal | 8:45 AM – 10:15 AM |
Disha Shool: West. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Friday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 12:53 PM – 1:41 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 5:36 AM – 6:23 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 12:53 AM – 1:40 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).

Fasts & Festivals
These will link through to /festivals/{slug}-{year}/ once the festival inversion index exists (plan 7.7).
Grahan — Lunar Eclipse (Chandra Grahan)
The eclipse happens below the horizon at Ipoh, so it is not observable here. Sutak is not observed for an eclipse that is not visible — that is the rule most sites get wrong by listing sutak on every eclipse regardless of location.
| Stage | Time |
|---|---|
| Begins | 10:33 AM |
| Maximum | 12:12 PM |
| Ends | 1:52 PM |
| Type | Partial |
| Magnitude | 0.93 — 93% of the disc covered at maximum |
