Choghadiya - Houston, 11 July 2025

On Friday, the 11th of July 2025, the Vedic calendar in Houston carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 6:30 AM and dipping below the horizon at 8:23 PM, bringing 13 hours 53 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Pratipada of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Uttara Ashadha. The day carries the Vaidhriti yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-07-11. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:54 AM to 5:42 AM.

In Houston, Rahu Kala runs from 11:42 AM to 1:26 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours.

On the auspicious side, Labh choghadiya, running 8:14 AM to 9:58 AM, stands out as the best muhurta. Uttara Ashadha nakshatra is under the lordship of Sun, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with Houston's horizon.

Why is sunrise in Houston on 11 July 2025 at 6:30 AM?
