Rahu Kaal - Vadodara, 17 December 2025

On Wednesday, the 17th of December 2025, the Vedic calendar in Vadodara carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 7:11 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:55 PM, bringing 10 hours 44 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Trayodashi of the Krishna fortnight, and the nakshatra of the day is Vishakha. The day carries the Sukarma yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-12-17. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 5:35 AM to 6:23 AM.

In Vadodara, Rahu Kala runs from 12:33 PM to 1:53 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Wednesday is North; new ventures toward the North are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Labh choghadiya, running 7:11 AM to 8:31 AM, stands out as the best muhurta. Vishakha nakshatra is under the lordship of Jupiter, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with Vadodara's horizon.
