The whole day

Tomorrow

At sunrise the Moon is 217.0° ahead of the Sun. 217.0 ÷ 12° = 18.08, which puts it in lunar day 19 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish
NakshatraRevati until 10:54 PMthen Ashwini until 10:12 PM, 1 Sept
At sunrise the Moon is at 350.6° in the sidereal zodiac. 350.6 ÷ 13°20′ = 26.29, which puts it in nakshatra 27 of 27.
SunRises 6:11 AM, sets 7:49 PM
Daylight today is 13h 38m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit12:33 PM – 1:28 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 55 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal7:53 AM – 9:36 AM
Daylight today is 818 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 102 minutes. On Monday, Rahu Kaal is part 2. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it

YogaGanda until 9:21 PMthen Vriddhi until 7:09 PM, 1 Sept
At sunrise the Sun and Moon’s longitudes add up to 124.2°. 124.2 ÷ 13°20′ = 9.31, which makes this yoga 10 of 27.
KaranaBava until 3:50 PMthen Balava until 3:12 AM, 1 Sept
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.
MonthBhadrapada · Shravana 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 · SunMeena · Simha
Sidereal positions at sunrise: Moon 350.6°, Sun 133.6°. Sidereal means 24.23° (the Lahiri ayanamsa) behind the zodiac used in Western astrology.
SamvatVikram 2083 · Shaka 1948
Vikram Samvat runs about 57 years ahead of the Gregorian year, and Shaka Samvat about 78 years behind it.
MoonRises 8:39 PM, Sets 10:05 AM, 90% 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 53 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.
