Gulika Kala - Howrah, 26 July 2025

On Saturday, 26 July 2025, the Vedic calendar throughout Howrah carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The sun rises at 5:06 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:19 PM, bringing 13 hours 13 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Dwitiya of the Shukla fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Ashlesha. Siddhi yoga presides over the day, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-07-26. Brahma Muhurta opens at 3:30 AM and closes at 4:18 AM, anchored to today's local sunrise.

Throughout Howrah, Rahu Kala occupies the stretch from 8:25 AM through 10:04 AM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. Today's Disha Shool falls in the East direction — classical guidance advises against new Saturday journeys toward the East. On the auspicious side, the Shubh choghadiya (6:46 AM–8:25 AM) is the day's prime auspicious window. Ashlesha nakshatra is ruled by Mercury, anchoring the vedic day in the particulars of Howrah.
