📚 What is Rahu Kaal?

Rahu Kaal (also called Rahu Kalam or Rahu Kala) is a period of time every day that is considered inauspicious in Vedic astrology. It is ruled by the malefic planet Rahu and is believed to bring obstacles and failures to new beginnings.

⏰ How is it Calculated?

The daytime (from sunrise to sunset) is divided into 8 equal parts. Depending on the day of the week, one specific part becomes Rahu Kaal:
