Auspicious timings

Favourable muhurats on 21 October 2026, Port Vila
MuhuratTimeWhat it is
Abhijit Muhurta8:25 AM – 9:58 AMThe eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon.
Brahma Muhurta3:43 AM – 4:28 AMThe fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise.
Nishita Muhurta11:08 PM – 11:54 PMVedic 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).
