Auspicious timings

Favourable muhurats on 20 December 2026, Shanghai
MuhuratTimeWhat it is
Abhijit Muhurta11:32 AM – 12:11 PMThe eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon.
Brahma Muhurta4:57 AM – 5:52 AMThe fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise.
Nishita Muhurta11:24 PM – 12:20 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).
