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. | 1:36 PM – 3:02 PM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 6:26 AM – 7:52 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. | 9:18 AM – 10:44 AM |
Auspicious times
Abhijit Muhurtham?The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays. | 11:47 AM – 12:33 PM |
|---|---|
Brahma Muhurtham?The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga. | 4:46 AM – 5:36 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. | 6:26 AM – 7:52 AM Dhanam7:52 AM – 9:18 AM Sugam10:44 AM – 12:10 PM Uthi12:10 PM – 1:36 PM Amirdha4:28 PM – 5:54 PM LaabamGowri Panchangam → |
Five limbs of the day
| Day | Thursday |
|---|---|

Nakshatra?The star-zone the Moon is passing through. There are 27; the one at your birth is your birth star. | Dhanishta (Avittam) until 10:45 PM then Shatabhisha (Sathayam) |
Yoga?One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day. | Atiganda until 3:57 AM (28 Aug) then Sukarma |
Karana?Half a tithi. Eleven kinds cycle through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is the one people avoid. | Vishti (Bhadra) until 6:02 PM then Bava until 6:18 AM (28 Aug) then Balava |
Moon sign (Rasi)?The zodiac sign (rasi) the Moon is in right now. It moves on every 2¼ days. | Makara (Capricorn) until 10:05 AM then Kumbha (Aquarius) |
| Sun sign | Simha (Leo) |
| Lunar month (amanta) | Shravana, 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. | Mithuna (Gemini) until 10:05 AM then Kataka (Cancer) |

About today’s panchangam for Roodepoort
In Roodepoort on Thursday, 27 August 2026, the sun rises at 6:26 AM and sets at 5:54 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 1:36 PM – 3:02 PM, Yamagandam 6:26 AM – 7:52 AM and Gulikai Kalam 9:18 AM – 10:44 AM. 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 Dhanishta (Avittam) nakshatra. The Tamil date is Aavani 11, Parabhava year.
