Tarabalam - San Francisco, 21 May 2027

On Friday, the 21st of May 2027, the Vedic calendar in San Francisco carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 5:56 AM and dipping below the horizon at 8:16 PM, bringing 14 hours 20 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Dwitiya of Krishna Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Jyeshtha. The day carries the Shiva yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2027-05-21. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:20 AM to 5:08 AM.

In San Francisco, Rahu Kala runs from 11:19 AM to 1:06 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Friday is West; new ventures toward the West are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Labh choghadiya, running 7:44 AM to 9:31 AM, stands out as the best muhurta. Jyeshtha nakshatra is under the lordship of Mercury, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with San Francisco's horizon.
