The whole day

At sunrise the Moon is 120.0° ahead of the Sun. 120.0 ÷ 12° = 10.00, which puts it in lunar day 11 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish

At sunrise the Moon is at 292.5° in the sidereal zodiac. 292.5 ÷ 13°20′ = 21.94, which puts it in nakshatra 22 of 27.

Abhijit12:25 PM – 1:09 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 44 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal4:56 PM – 6:19 PM
