All times are local to Ujjain, computed for Asia/Kolkata (UTC+05:30).
| Period | Time | Nature | Traditionally read as |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gulika Kaal | 1:36 PM - 3:02 PM | Mixed | Use extra care with new commitments; traditions treat this as a caution period. |
| Rahu Kaal | 7:54 AM - 9:20 AM | Inauspicious | Avoid beginning important work. Work already under way can continue. |
| Yamaganda Kaal | 10:45 AM - 12:11 PM | Inauspicious | Usually avoided for journeys, ceremonies and important new starts. |
| Abhijit Muhurat | 11:48 AM - 12:34 PM | Auspicious | A broadly favourable midday window for important work when a detailed muhurta is unavailable. |
Gulika Kaal is one eighth of the daylight, fixed by the weekday and measured from your local sunrise — so it falls at a different clock time in every city and moves a little every day. Rahu Kaal and Yamaganda are the same construction on different segments.
Everything above comes from the same computation behind today's full Panchang, using Swiss Ephemeris positions and your city's actual coordinates rather than a national average.
For what these periods mean and how they are traditionally used — including their limits — read the Gulika Kalam guide. For choosing a time deliberately, see how muhurta is actually chosen.
The slow transits work on a different scale entirely — Saturn and Jupiter change sign in years rather than in hours. Shani Gochar, Guru Gochar, Rahu Ketu Gochar, Sade Sati, Mercury retrograde.
Timing guidance here is a framework for planning, not medical, legal or financial advice. Never delay medical care for a timing window.
Gulika Kalam questions, answered
What time does Gulika Kalam start in Ujjain today?
The table above starts at sunrise in Ujjain, which is 6:29 AM today. Every window on this page is measured from that sunrise, so the first period begins there rather than at midnight.
Why is Gulika Kalam different in Ujjain than in Delhi?
Because the periods are divisions of the time between Ujjain's own sunrise and sunset, not a national table. Sunrise differs across India by well over an hour, so a time computed for Delhi is wrong in Ujjain by a meaningful margin.
How many Gulika Kalam periods are there?
4 are listed above for Ujjain — the full set covering the daylight period this tool divides.
These windows are derived from local sunrise, so they differ by city. A time computed for Delhi is wrong in Chennai by a meaningful margin.
