Rahu Kaal - Patna, 12 August 2026

On Wednesday, 12 August 2026, the Vedic calendar throughout Patna carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The sun rises at 5:22 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:26 PM, bringing 13 hours 4 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Amavasya of Krishna Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Pushya. Vyatipata yoga presides over the day, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-08-12. Brahma Muhurta opens at 3:46 AM and closes at 4:34 AM, anchored to today's local sunrise.

Throughout Patna, Rahu Kala occupies the stretch from 11:54 AM through 1:32 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. Today's Disha Shool falls in the North direction — classical guidance advises against new Wednesday journeys toward the North. On the auspicious side, the Labh choghadiya (5:22 AM–7:00 AM) is the day's prime auspicious window. Pushya nakshatra is ruled by Saturn, anchoring the vedic day in the particulars of Patna.
