At sunrise the Moon is 288.0° ahead of the Sun. 288.0 ÷ 12° = 24.00, which puts it in lunar day 25 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish

At sunrise the Moon is at 314.5° in the sidereal zodiac. 314.5 ÷ 13°20′ = 23.59, which puts it in nakshatra 24 of 27.

Abhijit12:45 PM – 1:44 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 58 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal7:46 AM – 9:35 AM
Daylight today is 876 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 109 minutes. On Monday, Rahu Kaal is part 2. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it
