Hora - Rajkot, 23 July 2025

On Wednesday, the 23rd of July 2025, the Vedic calendar for those in Rajkot carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The morning light begins at 6:16 AM and dipping below the horizon at 7:30 PM, bringing 13 hours 14 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Chaturdashi of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Ardra. Yoga for the day is Vyaghata, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-07-23. Pre-dawn, from 4:40 AM to 5:28 AM, is Brahma Muhurta: the period the Vedic tradition reserves for prayer, meditation, and study.

For those in Rajkot, From 12:53 PM to 2:32 PM Rahu Kala is in force — the period to avoid for new endeavours.

On the auspicious side, Labh (6:16 AM–7:55 AM) is the top-quality choghadiya of the day. Ardra nakshatra is governed by Rahu, grounding the cosmic calendar in the rhythms of this specific place and time.
