Inauspicious & auspicious periods in Panaji
About Rahu Kaal
Rahu Kaal (or Rahu Kalam) is a daily inauspicious window of about 1½ hours, traditionally avoided for beginning important new work. It is calculated by dividing the time between sunrise (06:23) and sunset (18:33) into eight equal parts and selecting the part assigned to the weekday. If you must act, many people wait for the auspicious Abhijit Muhurat (12:04–12:52) or a good choghadiya instead. See the complete panchang for Panaji.
