Aaj ka Rahu Kaal

Today's Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda and Gulika Kaal for Ranchi, calculated from local sunrise and sunset. Pick any date.

Kaise nikalta hai?

The daylight between sunrise and sunset is split into eight equal parts. Each weekday gives one part to Rahu: the second part on Monday, the seventh on Tuesday, the fifth on Wednesday, the sixth on Thursday, the fourth on Friday, the third on Saturday and the eighth on Sunday. Because Ranchi's day is about 10¾ hours in December and 13¼ in June, the length of Rahu Kaal itself changes through the year.

Traditionally people avoid starting a journey, signing a deal or beginning a puja in this window; ongoing work is not affected.
