At sunrise the Moon is 100.4° ahead of the Sun. 100.4 ÷ 12° = 8.37, which puts it in lunar day 9 of 30. Why tithis repeat or vanish

At sunrise the Moon is at 71.8° in the sidereal zodiac. 71.8 ÷ 13°20′ = 5.39, which puts it in nakshatra 6 of 27.
SunRises 7:28 AM, sets 7:25 PM
Daylight today is 11h 57m. Sunrise and sunset are when the Sun’s upper edge crosses the horizon, allowing for the way the atmosphere bends light.
Abhijit1:03 PM – 1:51 PM
Daylight is split into 15 muhurtas of 48 minutes each today. Abhijit is the 8th, around midday, and is traditionally considered a good time.
Rahu Kaal4:26 PM – 5:56 PM
Daylight today is 717 minutes. Split it into 8 parts of 90 minutes. On Tuesday, Rahu Kaal is part 7. It’s a traditional rule, not an astronomical event. Why people avoid it
