Choghadiya - Vijayawada, 14 January 2026

On Wednesday, 14 January 2026, the Vedic calendar throughout Vijayawada carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The sun rises at 6:40 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:52 PM, bringing 11 hours 13 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Ekadashi of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Anuradha. Ganda yoga presides over the day, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-01-14. Brahma Muhurta opens at 5:04 AM and closes at 5:52 AM, anchored to today's local sunrise.

Throughout Vijayawada, Rahu Kala occupies the stretch from 12:16 PM through 1:40 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. Today's Disha Shool falls in the North direction — classical guidance advises against new Wednesday journeys toward the North. On the auspicious side, the Labh choghadiya (6:40 AM–8:04 AM) is the day's prime auspicious window. Anuradha nakshatra is ruled by Saturn, anchoring the vedic day in the particulars of Vijayawada.
