Yamaganda Kala - Rajkot, 17 October 2025

On Friday, 17 October 2025, the Vedic calendar throughout Rajkot carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The sun rises at 6:44 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:19 PM, bringing 11 hours 34 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Ekadashi of Krishna side of the lunar month, and the nakshatra of the day is Magha. Shukla yoga presides over the day, completing the core panchang signature for 2025-10-17. Brahma Muhurta opens at 5:08 AM and closes at 5:56 AM, anchored to today's local sunrise.

Throughout Rajkot, Rahu Kala occupies the stretch from 11:05 AM through 12:31 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. Today's Disha Shool falls in the West direction — classical guidance advises against new Friday journeys toward the West. On the auspicious side, the Labh choghadiya (8:11 AM–9:38 AM) is the day's prime auspicious window. Magha nakshatra is ruled by Ketu, anchoring the vedic day in the particulars of Rajkot.

Why is sunrise in Rajkot on 17 October 2025 at 6:44 AM?
