Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 12:06 PM – 12:33 PM |
| Yamaganda | 12:59 PM – 1:26 PM |
| Gulika Kaal | 1:52 PM – 2:19 PM |
Disha Shool: East. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Monday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 1:19 PM – 1:33 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 8:43 AM – 10:02 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 12:46 AM – 2:06 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
Pradosh Vrat
These will link through to /festivals/{slug}-{year}/ once the festival inversion index exists (plan 7.7).
Kshaya Tithi. Shukla 13 is skipped on this day — it begins at 12:06 PM and ends at 8:54 AM, 22 Dec, never touching a sunrise, so it is never any day’s Udaya Tithi.
