Choghadiya - Kolkata, 2 April 2027

On Friday, the 2nd of April 2027, the Vedic calendar for those in Kolkata carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The morning light begins at 5:29 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:51 PM, bringing 12 hours 21 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Ekadashi of Krishna Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Shravana. Yoga for the day is Siddha, completing the core panchang signature for 2027-04-02. Pre-dawn, from 3:53 AM to 4:41 AM, is Brahma Muhurta: the period the Vedic tradition reserves for prayer, meditation, and study.

For those in Kolkata, From 10:07 AM to 11:40 AM Rahu Kala is in force — the period to avoid for new endeavours.

On the auspicious side, Labh (7:02 AM–8:35 AM) is the top-quality choghadiya of the day. Shravana nakshatra is governed by Moon, grounding the cosmic calendar in the rhythms of this specific place and time.
