Choghadiya - Gwalior, 25 August 2026

On Tuesday, the 25th of August 2026, the Vedic calendar in Gwalior carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 5:55 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:43 PM, bringing 12 hours 48 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Dwadashi of the Shukla fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Uttara Ashadha. The day carries the Ayushman yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-08-25. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:19 AM to 5:07 AM.

In Gwalior, Rahu Kala runs from 3:31 PM to 5:07 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Tuesday is North; new ventures toward the North are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Labh choghadiya, running 10:43 AM to 12:19 PM, stands out as the best muhurta. Uttara Ashadha nakshatra is under the lordship of Sun, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with Gwalior's horizon.

Why is sunrise in Gwalior on 25 August 2026 at 5:55 AM?

Sunrise at 5:55 AM in Gwalior on 25 August 2026 is determined by the city's geographic latitude (26.22°N) and the Earth's axial tilt on this date. The exact sunrise and sunset (6:43 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Gwalior's local horizon.

What yoga is operative in Gwalior on 25 August 2026?

The yoga operative in Gwalior on 25 August 2026 is Ayushman, active from 7:04 AM to 7:41 AM local time.
