Inauspicious timings
| Period | Time |
|---|---|
| Rahu Kaal | 10:05 AM – 11:42 AM |
| Yamaganda | 2:57 PM – 4:34 PM |
| Gulika Kaal | 6:51 AM – 8:28 AM |
Disha Shool: West. Travel in that direction is traditionally avoided on a Friday.
Auspicious timings
| Muhurat | Time | What it is |
|---|---|---|
| Abhijit Muhurta | 11:17 AM – 12:08 PM | The eighth muhurta of the day, centred on solar noon. |
| Brahma Muhurta | 3:43 AM – 4:26 AM | The fourteenth of the night’s fifteen muhurtas, ending before sunrise. |
| Nishita Muhurta | 11:21 PM – 12:05 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
Purnima VratRaksha Bandhan
These will link through to /festivals/{slug}-{year}/ once the festival inversion index exists (plan 7.7).
Grahan — Lunar Eclipse (Chandra Grahan)
Not visible at your location
The eclipse happens below the horizon at Tokyo, so it is not observable here. Sutak is not observed for an eclipse that is not visible — that is the rule most sites get wrong by listing sutak on every eclipse regardless of location.
| Stage | Time |
|---|---|
| Begins | 11:33 AM |
| Maximum | 1:12 PM |
| Ends | 2:52 PM |
| Type | Partial |
| Magnitude | 0.93 — 93% of the disc covered at maximum |
