Disha Shool - Chennai, 1 December 2025

On Monday, 1 December 2025, the Vedic calendar across Chennai carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Dawn breaks at 6:16 AM in Chennai and dipping below the horizon at 5:39 PM, bringing 11 hours 23 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Ekadashi of Shukla Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Revati. The reigning yoga is Vyatipata, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-12-01. The Brahma Muhurta window for Chennai spans 4:40 AM to 5:28 AM — the hour the classics name as most favourable for study and sadhana.

Across Chennai, The Rahu Kala window falls between 7:41 AM and 9:07 AM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. Disha Shool today points East — the direction to avoid for new travel on Monday per classical muhurta convention. On the auspicious side, the first favourable choghadiya is Amrit (6:16 AM–7:41 AM). Revati nakshatra is with Mercury as its ruling planet, making this a day shaped by both celestial timing and local geography.

Why is sunrise in Chennai on 1 December 2025 at 6:16 AM?

The exact sunrise and sunset (5:39 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Chennai's local horizon.

Is 1 December 2025 Ekadashi?
