Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 2:45 PM – 3:55 PM |
| Yamaganda | 10:09 AM – 11:18 AM |
| Gulika Kaal | 12:27 PM – 1:36 PM |
Disha Shool: North. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Tuesday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 12:09 PM – 12:46 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 5:48 AM – 6:47 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 11:58 PM – 12:57 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).
