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. | 1:20 PM – 2:43 PM |
|---|---|
Yamagandam?Another avoid-window. Tradition says things begun now don’t finish well, so big starts and journeys wait. | 6:24 AM – 7:47 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. | 9:11 AM – 10:34 AM |
Auspicious times
Abhijit Muhurtham?The midday power slot around local noon — considered good for almost anything. Not used on Wednesdays. | 11:34 AM – 12:19 PM |
|---|---|
Brahma Muhurtham?The calm window before dawn, prized for study, meditation and yoga. | 4:41 AM – 5:33 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. | 6:24 AM – 7:47 AM Dhanam7:47 AM – 9:11 AM Sugam10:34 AM – 11:57 AM Uthi11:57 AM – 1:20 PM Amirdha4:06 PM – 5:29 PM LaabamGowri Panchangam → |
Five limbs of the day
| Day | Thursday |
|---|---|
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. | Pournami until 6:58 AM then Krishna Prathama until 3:07 AM (25 Dec) then Krishna Dwitiya |
Nakshatra?The star-zone the Moon is passing through. There are 27; the one at your birth is your birth star. | Ardra (Thiruvathirai) until 1:47 AM (25 Dec) then Punarvasu (Punarpoosam) |
Yoga?One of 27 combinations of the Sun’s and Moon’s positions, each with its own flavour for the day. | Shukla until 12:51 PM then Brahma |
Karana?Half a tithi. Eleven kinds cycle through the month; Vishti (Bhadra) is the one people avoid. | Bava until 6:58 AM then Balava until 5:02 PM then Kaulava until 3:07 AM (25 Dec) then Taitila |
Moon sign (Rasi)?The zodiac sign (rasi) the Moon is in right now. It moves on every 2¼ days. | Mithuna (Gemini) all day |
| Sun sign | Dhanus (Sagittarius) |
| Lunar month (amanta) | Margashirsha, 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. | Vrischika (Scorpio) all day |

About today’s panchangam for Visakhapatnam
In Visakhapatnam on Thursday, 24 December 2026, the sun rises at 6:24 AM and sets at 5:29 PM. Rahu Kalam runs 1:20 PM – 2:43 PM, Yamagandam 6:24 AM – 7:47 AM and Gulikai Kalam 9:11 AM – 10:34 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 Ardra (Thiruvathirai) nakshatra. The Tamil date is Margazhi 9, Parabhava year.
