Rahu Kaal - Madurai, 11 April 2026

On Saturday, 11 April 2026, the Vedic calendar across Madurai carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Dawn breaks at 6:10 AM in Madurai and dipping below the horizon at 6:26 PM, bringing 12 hours 17 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Navami of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Uttara Ashadha. The reigning yoga is Siddha, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-04-11. The Brahma Muhurta window for Madurai spans 4:34 AM to 5:22 AM — the hour the classics name as most favourable for study and sadhana.

Across Madurai, The Rahu Kala window falls between 9:14 AM and 10:46 AM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. Disha Shool today points East — the direction to avoid for new travel on Saturday per classical muhurta convention. On the auspicious side, the first favourable choghadiya is Shubh (7:42 AM–9:14 AM). Uttara Ashadha nakshatra is with Sun as its ruling planet, making this a day shaped by both celestial timing and local geography.
