At sunrise the Moon is 114.5° ahead of the Sun. 114.5 ÷ 12° = 9.54, which puts it in lunar day 10 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish

Daylight today is 847 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 106 minutes. On Monday, Rahu Kaal is part 2. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it
