Gulika Kala - Ludhiana, 24 July 2025

On Thursday, the 24th of July 2025, the Vedic calendar for those in Ludhiana carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The morning light begins at 5:40 AM and dipping below the horizon at 7:25 PM, bringing 13 hours 46 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Amavasya of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Punarvasu. Yoga for the day is Harshana, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-07-24. Pre-dawn, from 4:04 AM to 4:52 AM, is Brahma Muhurta: the period the Vedic tradition reserves for prayer, meditation, and study.

For those in Ludhiana, From 2:16 PM to 3:59 PM Rahu Kala is in force — the period to avoid for new endeavours. On Thursday the Disha Shool (directional affliction) is South; the classical recommendation is to delay South-facing departures. On the auspicious side, Shubh (5:40 AM–7:23 AM) is the top-quality choghadiya of the day. Punarvasu nakshatra is governed by Jupiter, grounding the cosmic calendar in the rhythms of this specific place and time.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Rahu Kaal in Ludhiana on 24 July 2025?

In Ludhiana on 24 July 2025, Rahu Kaal runs from 2:16 PM to 3:59 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 Ludhiana on 24 July 2025 at 5:40 AM?

Sunrise at 5:40 AM in Ludhiana on 24 July 2025 is determined by the city's geographic latitude (30.90°N) and the Earth's axial tilt on this date. The exact sunrise and sunset (7:25 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Ludhiana's local horizon.

Is 24 July 2025 Amavasya?

Yes, 24 July 2025 is Amavasya (new-moon day) in the Vedic calendar as observed from Ludhiana. The Amavasya tithi runs from 2:29 AM to 12:41 AM local time.
