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. | 5:24 PM – 7:06 PM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 12:18 PM – 2:00 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. | 3:42 PM – 5:24 PM |
Auspicious times
Abhijit Muhurtham?The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays. | 11:51 AM – 12:46 PM |
|---|---|
Brahma Muhurtham?The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga. | 4:08 AM – 4:50 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. | 5:31 AM – 7:13 AM Uthi7:13 AM – 8:55 AM Amirdha10:37 AM – 12:18 PM Laabam12:18 PM – 2:00 PM Dhanam2:00 PM – 3:42 PM SugamGowri Panchangam → |
Five limbs of the day
| Day | Sunday |
|---|---|

Nakshatra?The star-zone the Moon is passing through. There are 27; the one at your birth is your birth star. | Bharani until 7:12 PM then Krittika (Karthigai) |
Yoga?One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day. | Sadhya until 8:53 AM then Shubha |
Karana?Half a tithi. Eleven kinds cycle through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is the one people avoid. | Kaulava until 8:57 AM then Taitila until 8:02 PM then Gara |
Moon sign (Rasi)?The zodiac sign (rasi) the Moon is in right now. It moves on every 2¼ days. | Mesha (Aries) until 12:51 AM (18 Jan) then Rishabha (Taurus) |
| Sun sign | Makara (Capricorn) |
| Lunar month (amanta) | Pausha, 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 12:51 AM (18 Jan) then Thula (Libra) |

About today’s panchangam for Roodepoort
In Roodepoort on Sunday, 17 January 2027, the sun rises at 5:31 AM and sets at 7:06 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 5:24 PM – 7:06 PM, Yamagandam 12:18 PM – 2:00 PM and Gulikai Kalam 3:42 PM – 5:24 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 4, Parabhava year.
