Tarabalam - Dubai, 17 August 2025

On Sunday, the 17th of August 2025, the Vedic calendar in Dubai carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 5:54 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:51 PM, bringing 12 hours 57 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Navami of Krishna Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Rohini. The day carries the Vyaghata yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-08-17. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:18 AM to 5:06 AM.

In Dubai, Rahu Kala runs from 5:14 PM to 6:51 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Sunday is West; new ventures toward the West are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Labh choghadiya, running 9:08 AM to 10:45 AM, stands out as the best muhurta. Rohini nakshatra is under the lordship of Moon, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with Dubai's horizon.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Rahu Kaal in Dubai on 17 August 2025?

In Dubai on 17 August 2025, Rahu Kaal runs from 5:14 PM to 6:51 PM. This 90-minute window is governed by Rahu and is traditionally avoided for starting new work, travel, or auspicious ceremonies. The timing shifts daily based on local sunrise, so it differs from city to city.

Why is sunrise in Dubai on 17 August 2025 at 5:54 AM?

Sunrise at 5:54 AM in Dubai on 17 August 2025 is determined by the city's geographic latitude (25.20°N) and the Earth's axial tilt on this date. The exact sunrise and sunset (6:51 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Dubai's local horizon.

What yoga is operative in Dubai on 17 August 2025?

The yoga operative in Dubai on 17 August 2025 is Vyaghata, active from 2:58 AM to 12:10 AM local time. In the Vedic panchang, yoga is calculated from the combined longitudes of the Sun and Moon and cycles through 27 named yogas. Vyaghata yoga carries its own quality and influences the day's overall character — affecting the auspiciousness of activities begun during its span.
