Choghadiya - Patna, 17 September 2025

On Wednesday, the 17th of September 2025, the Vedic calendar in Patna carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 5:37 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:50 PM, bringing 12 hours 13 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Ekadashi of Krishna Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Punarvasu. The day carries the Parigha yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-09-17. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:01 AM to 4:49 AM.

In Patna, Rahu Kala runs from 11:43 AM to 1:15 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Wednesday is North; new ventures toward the North are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Labh choghadiya, running 5:37 AM to 7:08 AM, stands out as the best muhurta. Punarvasu nakshatra is under the lordship of Jupiter, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with Patna's horizon.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Rahu Kaal in Patna on 17 September 2025?

Why is sunrise in Patna on 17 September 2025 at 5:37 AM?

Sunrise at 5:37 AM in Patna on 17 September 2025 is determined by the city's geographic latitude (25.59°N) and the Earth's axial tilt on this date. The exact sunrise and sunset (5:50 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Patna's local horizon.

Is 17 September 2025 Ekadashi?

Yes, 17 September 2025 is Krishna Ekadashi as observed from Patna. The Ekadashi tithi runs from 12:22 AM to 11:40 PM local time.
