Choghadiya - Patna, 24 December 2025

On Wednesday, the 24th of December 2025, the Vedic calendar in Patna carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 6:33 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:04 PM, bringing 10 hours 30 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Shravana. The day carries the Harshana yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-12-24. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:57 AM to 5:45 AM.

In Patna, Rahu Kala runs from 11:49 AM to 1:07 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours.

On the auspicious side, Labh choghadiya, running 6:33 AM to 7:52 AM, stands out as the best muhurta.
