Tarabalam - Madurai, 19 December 2026

On Saturday, the 19th of December 2026, the Vedic calendar in Madurai carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 6:29 AM and dipping below the horizon at 5:59 PM, bringing 11 hours 31 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Dashami of Shukla Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Revati. The day carries the Variyan yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-12-19. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:53 AM to 5:41 AM.

In Madurai, Rahu Kala runs from 9:21 AM to 10:48 AM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Saturday is East; new ventures toward the East are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Shubh choghadiya, running 7:55 AM to 9:21 AM, stands out as the best muhurta. Revati nakshatra is under the lordship of Mercury, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with Madurai's horizon.

Why is sunrise in Madurai on 19 December 2026 at 6:29 AM?
