About Rahu Kaal

What is Rahu Kaal?
Rahu Kaal (राहु काल) is a daily inauspicious period of approximately 1.5 hours ruled by the shadow planet Rahu. Starting new ventures, travel, or auspicious activities during this time is traditionally avoided in Hindu astrology.
How is Rahu Kaal calculated?
The day is divided into 8 equal parts from sunrise to sunset. Rahu Kaal falls in a specific part depending on the day of the week: Mon=2nd, Tue=7th, Wed=5th, Thu=6th, Fri=4th, Sat=3rd, Sun=8th. The exact time shifts daily based on local sunrise.
How long is Rahu Kaal?
Rahu Kaal lasts roughly 1 hour 30 minutes, exactly 1/8th of the time between local sunrise and sunset. The duration varies slightly each day as day length changes with seasons.
