The rahu kaal chart below shows rahu timing on each day of the week. On friday, saturday & monday rahukalam is in the morning. On wednesday & thursday rahu kalam is in the afternoon and sunday rahukalam is in the evening.
According to Hindu mythology, Rahu is a snake that swallows the Sun causing eclipse. Rahu Kalam is considered unlucky because it is associated with evil, Rahu.
Rahu kaal is calculated by dividing the number of hours between astrological sunrise & sunset by 8. For example, on a typical 6:00 AM - 6:00 PM day, rahu kalam is 1.5 hours or 90 minutes (12 hours divided by 8).
Adjust the sunrise and sunset time in you city to calculate exact rahu kaal.
