Times to avoid
Rahu Kalam?About 90 minutes each day when people avoid starting anything new — signing, buying, setting out. Work already in progress is fine. | 4:03 PM – 5:23 PM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 12:04 PM – 1:24 PM |
Gulikai Kalam?Whatever you do in Gulikai is said to repeat. Skipped for things you never want again (loans, funerals); some use it for things they do. | 2:43 PM – 4:03 PM |
Auspicious times
Abhijit Muhurtham?The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays. | 11:43 AM – 12:25 PM |
|---|---|
Brahma Muhurtham?The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga. | 4:59 AM – 5:52 AM |
Nalla Neram?The Tamil way to pick a good time: day and night are each cut into 8 slots, and every slot has a name that says whether it’s good or not. | 6:46 AM – 8:05 AM Uthi8:05 AM – 9:25 AM Amirdha10:45 AM – 12:04 PM Laabam12:04 PM – 1:24 PM Dhanam1:24 PM – 2:43 PM SugamGowri Panchangam → |
Five limbs of the day
| Day | Sunday |
|---|---|
Tithi?The lunar day. Each time the Moon pulls 12° further from the Sun a new tithi begins — 30 in a lunar month, so it can change at any hour. | Pournami until 10:45 AM then Krishna Prathama |
Nakshatra?The star-zone the Moon is passing through. There are 27; the one at your birth is your birth star. | Anuradha (Anusham) until 12:41 PM then Jyeshtha (Kettai) |
Yoga?One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day. | Siddha until 2:49 AM (1 Jun) then Sadhya |
Karana?Half a tithi. Eleven kinds cycle through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is the one people avoid. | Bava until 10:45 AM then Balava until 11:55 PM then Kaulava |
Moon sign (Rasi)?The zodiac sign (rasi) the Moon is in right now. It moves on every 2¼ days. | Vrischika (Scorpio) all day |
| Sun sign | Rishabha (Taurus) |
| Lunar month (amanta) | Adhika Jyeshtha, Shukla Paksha |
Chandrashtama for?If this is your moon sign, the Moon is in your 8th house — tradition says keep it low-key and put off big decisions. | Mesha (Aries) all day |

About today’s panchangam for Brakpan
In Brakpan on Sunday, 31 May 2026, the sun rises at 6:46 AM and sets at 5:23 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 4:03 PM – 5:23 PM, Yamagandam 12:04 PM – 1:24 PM and Gulikai Kalam 2:43 PM – 4:03 PM. These periods, like the good-time slots, are found by dividing the time between local sunrise and sunset into eight equal parts — which is why they shift from city to city and day to day, and why a fixed “7:30 to 9:00” chart is only an approximation.
The day begins at sunrise with Pournami tithi and Anuradha (Anusham) nakshatra. The Tamil date is Vaikasi 17, Parabhava year.
