The whole day

Tomorrow
TithiPratipada until 1:24 AM, 8 Octthen Dwitiya until 9:53 PM, 8 Oct
At sunrise the Moon is 181.4° ahead of the Sun. 181.4 ÷ 12° = 15.12, which puts it in lunar day 16 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish
NakshatraRevati until 8:58 PMthen Ashwini until 6:15 PM, 8 Oct
At sunrise the Moon is at 351.4° in the sidereal zodiac. 351.4 ÷ 13°20′ = 26.36, which puts it in nakshatra 27 of 27.
SunRises 7:11 AM, sets 6:25 PM
Daylight today is 11h 14m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit12:25 PM – 1:10 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 45 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal3:36 PM – 5:00 PM
Daylight today is 674 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 84 minutes. On Tuesday, Rahu Kaal is part 7. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it

KaranaBalava until 3:07 PMthen Kaulava until 1:24 AM, 8 Oct
A karana is half a tithi: each 6° the Moon gains on the Sun.
PakshaKrishna · waning
Shukla is the bright half, from new moon to full moon. Krishna is the dark half, from full moon to new moon.
MonthKartika · Ashvin in the south and west
North India usually ends a month at full moon, and much of the south and west at new moon. In the dark fortnight, the two count different months. Why there are two names

Sidereal positions at sunrise: Moon 351.4°, Sun 170.0°. Sidereal means 24.22° (the Lahiri ayanamsa) behind the zodiac used in Western astrology.

A Hindu day runs from sunrise to sunrise, so a moonrise just before dawn belongs to the day before.

Why times differ in London

At 51.5°N, 0.1°W, London has 30 minutes less daylight than New Delhi today, which changes the length and timing of each traditional period. The tithi at sunrise differs from New Delhi’s today: sunrise here falls in a different lunar day.
