Gulika Kala - Bhopal, 2 May 2027

On Sunday, the 2nd of May 2027, the Vedic calendar for those in Bhopal carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The morning light begins at 5:47 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:47 PM, bringing 13 hours of daylight. The tithi is Ekadashi of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Purva Bhadrapada. Yoga for the day is Indra, completing the core panchang signature for 2027-05-02. Pre-dawn, from 4:11 AM to 4:59 AM, is Brahma Muhurta: the period the Vedic tradition reserves for prayer, meditation, and study.

For those in Bhopal, From 5:09 PM to 6:47 PM Rahu Kala is in force — the period to avoid for new endeavours.

On the auspicious side, Labh (9:02 AM–10:40 AM) is the top-quality choghadiya of the day.
