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. | 12:13 PM – 1:37 PM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 8:03 AM – 9:26 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. | 10:50 AM – 12:13 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. | 4:56 AM – 5:48 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. | 6:39 AM – 8:03 AM Laabam8:03 AM – 9:26 AM Dhanam9:26 AM – 10:50 AM Sugam1:37 PM – 3:00 PM Uthi3:00 PM – 4:24 PM AmirdhaGowri Panchangam → |

About today’s panchangam for Randburg
In Randburg on Wednesday, 12 August 2026, the sun rises at 6:39 AM and sets at 5:47 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 12:13 PM – 1:37 PM, Yamagandam 8:03 AM – 9:26 AM and Gulikai Kalam 10:50 AM – 12:13 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 Ashlesha (Ayilyam) nakshatra. The Tamil date is Aadi 27, Parabhava year.
