Gulika Kala - Raipur, 21 August 2025

On Thursday, 21 August 2025, the Vedic calendar across Raipur carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Dawn breaks at 5:44 AM in Raipur and dipping below the horizon at 6:28 PM, bringing 12 hours 43 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Trayodashi of Krishna Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Pushya. The reigning yoga is Vyatipata, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-08-21. The Brahma Muhurta window for Raipur spans 4:08 AM to 4:56 AM — the hour the classics name as most favourable for study and sadhana.

Across Raipur, The Rahu Kala window falls between 1:41 PM and 3:17 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. Disha Shool today points South — the direction to avoid for new travel on Thursday per classical muhurta convention. On the auspicious side, the first favourable choghadiya is Shubh (5:44 AM–7:20 AM). Pushya nakshatra is with Saturn as its ruling planet, making this a day shaped by both celestial timing and local geography.

Why is sunrise in Raipur on 21 August 2025 at 5:44 AM?

Sunrise at 5:44 AM in Raipur on 21 August 2025 is determined by the city's geographic latitude (21.25°N) and the Earth's axial tilt on this date. The exact sunrise and sunset (6:28 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Raipur's local horizon.

What yoga is operative in Raipur on 21 August 2025?

The yoga operative in Raipur on 21 August 2025 is Vyatipata, active from 6:13 PM to 4:14 PM local time.
