Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 54 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal3:00 PM – 4:40 PM
Daylight today is 806 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 101 minutes. On Thursday, Rahu Kaal is part 6. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it
