At sunrise the Moon is 338.6° ahead of the Sun. 338.6 ÷ 12° = 28.21, which puts it in lunar day 29 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish
NakshatraSwati until 2:29 AM, 19 Novthen Vishakha until 5:29 AM, 20 Nov
At sunrise the Moon is at 190.6° in the sidereal zodiac. 190.6 ÷ 13°20′ = 14.29, which puts it in nakshatra 15 of 27.
SunRises 7:24 AM, sets 4:07 PM
Daylight today is 8h 44m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit11:28 AM – 12:03 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 35 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal1:56 PM – 3:02 PM
Daylight today is 524 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 66 minutes. On Tuesday, Rahu Kaal is part 7. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it

At sunrise the Sun and Moon’s longitudes add up to 42.5°. 42.5 ÷ 13°20′ = 3.19, which makes this yoga 4 of 27.
KaranaVishti until 2:58 PMthen Shakuni until 4:14 AM, 19 Nov
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.
MonthMargashirsha · Kartika 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
Moon · SunTula · Vrishchika
Sidereal positions at sunrise: Moon 190.6°, Sun 212.0°. Sidereal means 24.22° (the Lahiri ayanamsa) behind the zodiac used in Western astrology.

Vikram Samvat runs about 57 years ahead of the Gregorian year, and Shaka Samvat about 78 years behind it.
MoonRises 6:59 AM, 19 Nov, Sets 2:44 PM, 3.6% lit
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 117 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.
