| Period | Time | Nature | Traditionally read as |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gulika Kaal | 2:27 PM - 3:58 PM | Mixed | Use extra care with new commitments; traditions treat this as a caution period. |
| Rahu Kaal | 8:27 AM - 9:57 AM | Inauspicious | Avoid beginning important work. Work already under way can continue. |
| Yamaganda Kaal | 11:27 AM - 12:57 PM | Inauspicious | Usually avoided for journeys, ceremonies and important new starts. |
| Abhijit Muhurat | 12:33 PM - 1:21 PM | Auspicious | A broadly favourable midday window for important work when a detailed muhurta is unavailable. |
- How long Gulika Kaal lasts. It is one eighth of the daylight, so 1 hour 30 minutes today. Through 2026 it runs from 1 hour 30 minutes (around 20 December) to 1 hour 32 minutes (around 19 June).
- Local noon. Midway between sunrise and sunset, Kuala Lumpur's noon falls at 12:57 PM today, 57 minutes after 12:00 on the clock. Kuala Lumpur lies 18.3° west of the 120° E meridian its clock keeps, which makes noon 73 minutes late; the time of year (the equation of time) takes off 16 minutes today. Abhijit Muhurat is centred on this moment, not on twelve o'clock.
- Day length. Kuala Lumpur has 12 hours 2 minutes of daylight today, against 12 hours 3 minutes a week ago and 12 hours 1 minute a week from now: the day length is near its turning point and barely moves this week. In 2026 the longest day is 12 hours 19 minutes (around 19 June) and the shortest 11 hours 57 minutes (around 20 December), a swing of 22 minutes.
- The year's extremes. The earliest sunrise of 2026 is 6:56 AM (around 29 October) and the latest 7:27 AM (around 5 February); the earliest sunset is 6:57 PM (around 7 November) and the latest 7:28 PM (around 16 February). None falls on a solstice: the Sun's clock time drifts through the year, so the latest mornings come weeks after the shortest day.
- The overhead Sun. Kuala Lumpur lies 3.1° north of the equator, south of the Tropic of Cancer, so the noon Sun stands directly overhead twice a year: around 28 March and 15 September in 2026. On those two days an upright pole casts almost no shadow at local noon.
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 Kuala Lumpur today?
The table above starts at sunrise in Kuala Lumpur, which is 6:56 AM today. Every window on this page is measured from that sunrise, so the first period begins there rather than at midnight.
Which timezone are these Gulika Kalam times in?
All times on this page are local to Kuala Lumpur, computed for Asia/Kuala_Lumpur (UTC+08:00). They are not converted from Indian Standard Time — sunrise is calculated for Kuala Lumpur's own coordinates and the whole table is measured from it.
Why is Gulika Kalam different in Kuala Lumpur than in Delhi?
Because the periods are divisions of the time between Kuala Lumpur'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 Kuala Lumpur by a meaningful margin.
How many Gulika Kalam periods are there?
4 are listed above for Kuala Lumpur — the full set covering the daylight period this tool divides.
Delhi and every major city on one page: Gulika Kalam today.
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.
