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. | 1:12 PM – 3:03 PM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 7:41 AM – 9:32 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. | 11:22 AM – 1:12 PM |
Auspicious times
Abhijit Muhurtham?The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays. | Not observed on Wednesdays |
|---|---|
Brahma Muhurtham?The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga. | 4:37 AM – 5:14 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. | 5:51 AM – 7:41 AM Laabam7:41 AM – 9:32 AM Dhanam9:32 AM – 11:22 AM Sugam3:03 PM – 4:53 PM Uthi4:53 PM – 6:43 PM AmirdhaGowri Panchangam → |
Five limbs of the day
| Day | Wednesday |

Nakshatra?The star-zone the Moon is passing through. There are 27; the one at your birth is your birth star. | Jyeshtha (Kettai) until 2:30 AM (10 Dec) then Mula (Moolam) |
Yoga?One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day. | Dhriti until 2:09 PM then Shula |
Karana?Half a tithi. Eleven kinds cycle through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is the one people avoid. | Naga until 11:51 AM then Kimstughna until 1:02 AM (10 Dec) then Bava |
Moon sign (Rasi)?The zodiac sign (rasi) the Moon is in right now. It moves on every 2¼ days. | Vrischika (Scorpio) until 2:30 AM (10 Dec) then Dhanus (Sagittarius) |

About today’s panchangam for Melbourne
In Melbourne on Wednesday, 9 December 2026, the sun rises at 5:51 AM and sets at 8:33 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 1:12 PM – 3:03 PM, Yamagandam 7:41 AM – 9:32 AM and Gulikai Kalam 11:22 AM – 1:12 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 Amavasya tithi and Jyeshtha (Kettai) nakshatra. The Tamil date is Karthigai 23, Parabhava year.
