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. | 7:42 AM – 9:18 AM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 10:55 AM – 12:31 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. | 2:08 PM – 3:45 PM |
Auspicious times
Abhijit Muhurtham?The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays. | 12:06 PM – 12:57 PM |
|---|---|
Brahma Muhurtham?The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga. | 4:36 AM – 5:20 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. | 6:05 AM – 7:42 AM Amirdha10:55 AM – 12:31 PM Laabam12:31 PM – 2:08 PM Dhanam2:08 PM – 3:45 PM Sugam5:21 PM – 6:58 PM UthiGowri Panchangam → |
Five limbs of the day
| Day | Monday |

Yoga?One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day. | Sukarma until 9:47 PM then Dhriti |

| Sun sign | Rishabha (Taurus) |
| Lunar month (amanta) | Adhika Jyeshtha, Shukla Paksha |

About today’s panchangam for Calangute
In Calangute on Monday, 18 May 2026, the sun rises at 6:05 AM and sets at 6:58 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 7:42 AM – 9:18 AM, Yamagandam 10:55 AM – 12:31 PM and Gulikai Kalam 2:08 PM – 3:45 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 Shukla Dwitiya tithi and Rohini nakshatra. The Tamil date is Vaikasi 4, Parabhava year.
