Disha Shool - Chicago, 1 February 2027

On Monday, the 1st of February 2027, the Vedic calendar for those in Chicago carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The morning light begins at 7:04 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:04 PM, bringing 10 hours of daylight. The tithi is Ekadashi of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Jyeshtha. Yoga for the day is Vyaghata, completing the core panchang signature for 2027-02-01. Pre-dawn, from 5:28 AM to 6:16 AM, is Brahma Muhurta: the period the Vedic tradition reserves for prayer, meditation, and study.

For those in Chicago, From 8:19 AM to 9:34 AM Rahu Kala is in force — the period to avoid for new endeavours.
