Brahma Muhurta - Navi Mumbai, 28 August 2026

On Friday, the 28th of August 2026, the Vedic calendar in Navi Mumbai carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 6:23 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:55 PM, bringing 12 hours 32 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Purnima of Shukla Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Shatabhisha. The day carries the Atiganda yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-08-28. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:47 AM to 5:35 AM.

In Navi Mumbai, Rahu Kala runs from 11:05 AM to 12:39 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Friday is West; new ventures toward the West are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Labh choghadiya, running 7:57 AM to 9:31 AM, stands out as the best muhurta.
