Choghadiya - Howrah, 31 January 2027

On Sunday, 31 January 2027, the Vedic calendar throughout Howrah carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The sun rises at 6:17 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:23 PM, bringing 11 hours 6 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Navami of Krishna side of the lunar month, and the nakshatra of the day is Anuradha. Vriddhi yoga presides over the day, completing the core panchang signature for 2027-01-31. Brahma Muhurta opens at 4:41 AM and closes at 5:29 AM, anchored to today's local sunrise.

Throughout Howrah, Rahu Kala occupies the stretch from 3:59 PM through 5:23 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours.

On the auspicious side, the Labh choghadiya (9:04 AM–10:27 AM) is the day's prime auspicious window. Anuradha nakshatra is ruled by Saturn, anchoring the vedic day in the particulars of Howrah.
