Brahma Muhurta - Vasai-Virar, 17 September 2026

On Thursday, the 17th of September 2026, the Vedic calendar for those in Vasai-Virar carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The morning light begins at 6:27 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:38 PM, bringing 12 hours 11 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Shashthi of the Shukla fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Anuradha. Yoga for the day is Vishkambha, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-09-17. Pre-dawn, from 4:51 AM to 5:39 AM, is Brahma Muhurta: the period the Vedic tradition reserves for prayer, meditation, and study.

For those in Vasai-Virar, From 2:04 PM to 3:35 PM Rahu Kala is in force — the period to avoid for new endeavours. On Thursday the Disha Shool (directional affliction) is South; the classical recommendation is to delay South-facing departures. On the auspicious side, Shubh (6:27 AM–7:58 AM) is the top-quality choghadiya of the day. Anuradha nakshatra is governed by Saturn, grounding the cosmic calendar in the rhythms of this specific place and time.
