What is Rahu Kaal?
Rahu Kaal is one-eighth of the daytime, from sunrise to sunset, ruled by Rahu. Its place in the day depends on the weekday: on Monday it is the second part, on Saturday the third, on Friday the fourth, on Wednesday the fifth, on Thursday the sixth, on Tuesday the seventh and on Sunday the eighth.
Because sunrise and sunset change with the season and the city, Rahu Kaal is different in every city and on every day. Yamaganda and Gulika are two more inauspicious parts of the day calculated the same way.
