Moonrise
Does not rise
Moonset

The Moon rises roughly 50 minutes later each day, so on about one civil day a month it does not rise (or does not set) between midnight and midnight at all. That is the correct reading for this date, not missing data.

Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 11:23 AM – 1:04 PM |
| Yamaganda | 4:26 PM – 6:07 PM |
| Gulika Kaal | 8:01 AM – 9:42 AM |
Disha Shool: West. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Friday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 12:37 PM – 1:31 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 4:53 AM – 5:34 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 12:43 AM – 1:24 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).
