The whole day

Tomorrow
TithiDashami until 1:11 AM, 25 Octthen Ekadashi until 10:53 PM, 25 Oct
At sunrise the Moon is 290.3° ahead of the Sun. 290.3 ÷ 12° = 24.19, which puts it in lunar day 25 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish
NakshatraAshlesha until 1:12 PMthen Magha until 11:40 AM, 25 Oct
At sunrise the Moon is at 116.7° in the sidereal zodiac. 116.7 ÷ 13°20′ = 8.75, which puts it in nakshatra 9 of 27.
SunRises 7:39 AM, sets 5:50 PM
Daylight today is 10h 10m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit12:24 PM – 1:05 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 41 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal4:33 PM – 5:50 PM
Daylight today is 610 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 76 minutes. On Sunday, Rahu Kaal is part 8. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it
Full panchang
YogaShubha until 1:17 PMthen Shukla until 10:17 AM, 25 Oct
At sunrise the Sun and Moon’s longitudes add up to 303.1°. 303.1 ÷ 13°20′ = 22.73, which makes this yoga 23 of 27.
KaranaVanija until 2:18 PMthen Vishti until 1:11 AM, 25 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
Moon · SunKarka · Tula
Sidereal positions at sunrise: Moon 116.7°, Sun 186.4°. Sidereal means 24.25° (the Lahiri ayanamsa) behind the zodiac used in Western astrology.
SamvatVikram 2084 · Shaka 1949
Vikram Samvat runs about 57 years ahead of the Gregorian year, and Shaka Samvat about 78 years behind it.
MoonRises 2:23 AM, 25 Oct, Sets 3:32 PM, 33% lit
A Hindu day runs from sunrise to sunrise, so a moonrise just before dawn belongs to the day before.

Gulika3:17 PM – 4:33 PM

Why times differ in London

At 51.5°N, 0.1°W, London has 66 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.
