How it's worked out
The daytime from sunrise to sunset is divided into eight equal parts. Rahu rules a different part on each weekday: the 8th on Sunday, 2nd on Monday, 7th on Tuesday, 5th on Wednesday, 6th on Thursday, 4th on Friday and 3rd on Saturday. Because daylight changes with season and place, the clock times change too. More about Rahu Kalam.

What is Rahu Kalam?
Rahu Kalam is one of eight equal parts of the daytime (sunrise to sunset), ruled by Rahu. Traditionally it is avoided for starting anything new, such as a journey, purchase or ceremony. Routine work can continue.
Why is Rahu Kalam different in every city?
It is calculated from local sunrise and sunset, which change with place and season. Rahu Kalam in London is not the same as in Chennai.
What are Yamagandam and Gulika Kalam?
Yamagandam is another daily period traditionally avoided for new starts. Gulika (Kuligai) Kalam is said to repeat whatever is begun in it, so it is avoided for things you would not want repeated.
Can I do anything during Rahu Kalam?
Yes. Ongoing work, routine tasks and prayer are fine. The tradition is about avoiding new beginnings.

Ask Baba
What is Rahu Kalam today, and what should I avoid in it?
Rahu Kalam is one eighth of the time between local sunrise and sunset, in a slot set by the weekday; on a 12-hour day it lasts about 90 minutes. With a 06:00 sunrise, Monday's falls about 07:30 to 09:00. Tradition avoids starting new things in it, such as signing, buying or setting out, while routine work carries on.
Read moreWhat is Abhijit Muhurta, and can I use it for anything?
Abhijit Muhurta is the 8th of the 15 daytime muhurtas, a roughly 48-minute window around local midday, traditionally treated as good for almost any important start when no better muhurta is available. The main exception is Wednesday, when many traditions avoid it. Check the exact time for your city, because local midday is rarely 12:00.
Read moreWhat is Nalla Neram today?
Nalla Neram (Tamil for good time) is the set of daily windows Tamil calendars mark as favourable, usually one in the morning and one in the evening, worked out from the weekday and local sunrise. ChiChakra does not calculate Nalla Neram itself yet; its Rahu Kalam tool shows today's Rahu Kalam for your city, the main slot to keep clear of.
