Disha Shool - Vadodara, 4 December 2026

On Friday, 4 December 2026, the Vedic calendar across Vadodara carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Dawn breaks at 7:02 AM in Vadodara and dipping below the horizon at 5:51 PM, bringing 10 hours 49 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Ekadashi of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Hasta. The reigning yoga is Ayushman, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-12-04. The Brahma Muhurta window for Vadodara spans 5:26 AM to 6:14 AM — the hour the classics name as most favourable for study and sadhana.

Across Vadodara, The Rahu Kala window falls between 11:06 AM and 12:27 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. Disha Shool today points West — the direction to avoid for new travel on Friday per classical muhurta convention. On the auspicious side, the first favourable choghadiya is Labh (8:24 AM–9:45 AM). Hasta nakshatra is with Moon as its ruling planet, making this a day shaped by both celestial timing and local geography.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Rahu Kaal in Vadodara on 4 December 2026?

In Vadodara on 4 December 2026, Rahu Kaal runs from 11:06 AM to 12:27 PM. This 90-minute window is governed by Rahu and is traditionally avoided for starting new work, travel, or auspicious ceremonies. The timing shifts daily based on local sunrise, so it differs from city to city.

Why is sunrise in Vadodara on 4 December 2026 at 7:02 AM?

Sunrise at 7:02 AM in Vadodara on 4 December 2026 is determined by the city's geographic latitude (22.31°N) and the Earth's axial tilt on this date. The exact sunrise and sunset (5:51 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Vadodara's local horizon.

Is 4 December 2026 Ekadashi?

Yes, 4 December 2026 is Krishna Ekadashi as observed from Vadodara. The Ekadashi tithi runs from 11:04 PM to 11:45 PM local time. Ekadashi is one of the most sacred tithis in Vaishnavism — devotees observe a fast, avoid grains, and engage in continuous chanting or scripture reading throughout this day.
