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. | 3:41 PM – 5:21 PM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 8:59 AM – 10:40 AM |
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. | 12:20 PM – 2:00 PM |
Auspicious times
Abhijit Muhurtham?The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays. | 11:53 AM – 12:47 PM |
|---|---|
Brahma Muhurtham?The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga. | 4:14 AM – 4:56 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. | 7:19 AM – 8:59 AM Laabam8:59 AM – 10:40 AM Dhanam10:40 AM – 12:20 PM Sugam2:00 PM – 3:41 PM Uthi5:21 PM – 7:01 PM AmirdhaGowri Panchangam → |
Five limbs of the day
| Day | Tuesday |
|---|---|
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. | Shukla Navami until 3:35 PM then Shukla Dasami |
Nakshatra?The star-zone the Moon is passing through. There are 27; the one at your birth is your birth star. | Bharani until 7:38 AM then Krittika (Karthigai) |
Yoga?One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day. | Shukla until 11:42 PM then Brahma |
Karana?Half a tithi. Eleven kinds cycle through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is the one people avoid. | Kaulava until 3:35 PM then Taitila until 2:22 AM (28 Jan) then Gara |
Moon sign (Rasi)?The zodiac sign (rasi) the Moon is in right now. It moves on every 2¼ days. | Mesha (Aries) until 1:15 PM then Rishabha (Taurus) |
| Sun sign | Makara (Capricorn) |
| Lunar month (amanta) | Magha, 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. | Kanya (Virgo) until 1:15 PM then Thula (Libra) |

About today’s panchangam for Centurion
In Centurion on Tuesday, 27 January 2026, the sun rises at 5:39 AM and sets at 7:01 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 3:41 PM – 5:21 PM, Yamagandam 8:59 AM – 10:40 AM and Gulikai Kalam 12:20 PM – 2:00 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 Navami tithi and Bharani nakshatra. The Tamil date is Thai 14, Visuvavasu year.
