Disha Shool - Patna, 28 December 2025

On Sunday, the 28th of December 2025, the Vedic calendar in Patna carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 6:35 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:06 PM, bringing 10 hours 31 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Ashtami of the Shukla fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Uttara Bhadrapada. The day carries the Variyan yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-12-28.
