Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 1:56 PM – 2:44 PM |
| Yamaganda | 10:41 AM – 11:30 AM |
| Gulika Kaal | 12:19 PM – 1:07 PM |
Disha Shool: North. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Tuesday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 12:06 PM – 12:32 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 6:37 AM – 7:46 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 11:45 PM – 12:54 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).
