The whole day

Tomorrow

At sunrise the Moon is 13.9° ahead of the Sun. 13.9 ÷ 12° = 1.16, which puts it in lunar day 2 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish
NakshatraJyeshtha until 2:18 PMthen Mula until 4:00 PM, 30 Nov
At sunrise the Moon is at 236.5° in the sidereal zodiac. 236.5 ÷ 13°20′ = 17.74, which puts it in nakshatra 18 of 27.
SunRises 7:40 AM, sets 3:57 PM
Daylight today is 8h 17m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit11:32 AM – 12:05 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 33 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal8:42 AM – 9:44 AM
Daylight today is 497 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 62 minutes. On Monday, Rahu Kaal is part 2. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it

A karana is half a tithi: each 6° the Moon gains on the Sun.

Shukla is the bright half, from new moon to full moon. Krishna is the dark half, from full moon to new moon.

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
