- How long each Hora lasts. A daytime Hora is a twelfth of the daylight, 50 minutes today, and a night Hora 1 hour 10 minutes; only near the equinoxes is a Hora close to sixty minutes.
- Local noon. Midway between sunrise and sunset, London's noon falls at 11:44 AM today, 16 minutes before 12:00 on the clock. Abhijit Muhurat is centred on this moment, not on twelve o'clock.
- Day length. London has 10 hours 2 minutes of daylight today, against 10 hours 28 minutes a week ago and 9 hours 37 minutes a week from now: the days here are getting shorter by about 26 minutes a week, and will until the shortest day, around 21 December. In 2026 the longest day is 16 hours 39 minutes (around 21 June) and the shortest 7 hours 50 minutes (around 21 December), a swing of 8 hours 49 minutes.
- The overhead Sun. London lies 51.5° north, 28.1° beyond the Tropic of Cancer, so the Sun never stands directly overhead: at its highest, around 21 June, it is 62° above the horizon at noon.

Twenty-four Hora periods — twelve in daylight, twelve at night — each ruled by one of the seven classical planets in a fixed repeating order that starts from the lord of the weekday.
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 Hora 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.
Hora questions, answered
Which Hora is running right now in London?
The Mercury Hora is running now in London, from 5:55 PM to 7:05 PM. It is traditionally read as auspicious.
What time does Hora start in London today?
The table above starts at sunrise in London, which is 6:43 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 Hora times in?
All times on this page are local to London, computed for Europe/London (UTC+00:00). They are not converted from Indian Standard Time — sunrise is calculated for London's own coordinates and the whole table is measured from it.
Why is Hora different in London than in Delhi?
Because the periods are divisions of the time between London'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 London by a meaningful margin.
How many Hora periods are there?
24 are listed above for London — the full set covering sunrise to the next sunrise.
Delhi and every major city on one page: Hora 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.
