The whole day

Tomorrow
TithiTrayodashi until 5:21 AM, 29 May
At sunrise the Moon is 144.7° ahead of the Sun. 144.7 ÷ 12° = 12.05, which puts it in lunar day 13 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish
NakshatraSwati until 6:08 AM, 29 May
At sunrise the Moon is at 187.3° in the sidereal zodiac. 187.3 ÷ 13°20′ = 14.05, which puts it in nakshatra 15 of 27.
SunRises 4:52 AM, sets 9:04 PM
Daylight today is 16h 12m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit12:26 PM – 1:31 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 65 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal3:00 PM – 5:01 PM
Daylight today is 972 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 122 minutes. On Thursday, Rahu Kaal is part 6. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it
Full panchang
YogaVariyana until 11:25 PMthen Parigha until 12:06 AM, 30 May
At sunrise the Sun and Moon’s longitudes add up to 229.9°. 229.9 ÷ 13°20′ = 17.24, which makes this yoga 18 of 27.
KaranaKaulava until 4:22 PMthen Taitila until 5:21 AM, 29 May
A karana is half a tithi: each 6° the Moon gains on the Sun.
PakshaShukla · waxing
Shukla is the bright half, from new moon to full moon. Krishna is the dark half, from full moon to new moon.
MonthJyeshtha · extra month
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 · Vrishabha
Sidereal positions at sunrise: Moon 187.3°, Sun 42.6°. Sidereal means 24.23° (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 144 minutes more 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.
