Times in Washington DC (EST), DST applied.
The daytime (sunrise to sunset) is divided into eight equal parts; one part each weekday is ruled by Rahu — Monday the 2nd, Saturday the 3rd, Friday the 4th, Wednesday the 5th, Thursday the 6th, Tuesday the 7th and Sunday the 8th. New beginnings — a purchase, a journey, a puja's sankalp — are avoided in it. Because it is a share of the local day, Washington DC's Rahu Kaal is different from India's and changes slowly through the year.
Tuesday, December 8, 2026: 2:23 PM – 3:35 PM (EST).
The commonly observed Rahu Kaal is in the daytime only (sunrise to sunset).
No — it depends on local sunrise and sunset; always use the time for your own city.
