Questions people ask about London
What is today's Rahu Kaal in London?
12:50 PM – 2:17 PM on Wednesday, 30 September 2026. Rahu Kaal is one eighth of the daylight, counted from London's own sunrise at 7:01 AM, and the weekday decides which eighth — so it moves every day and differs from any other city's.
What is the tithi and nakshatra in London today?
At sunrise in London the tithi is Krishna Chaturthi and the Moon's star is Krittika. A tithi and a star end at the same instant everywhere, but each is read at the local sunrise, so a city an hour west can begin the day on the previous one.
Why do these times differ from a printed London calendar?
Two usual reasons. A printed calendar is often computed for a state capital rather than for London itself, and sunrise shifts by a few minutes over even a short distance. The other is method: these figures come from a planetary ephemeris (Drik Ganita) with the Lahiri ayanamsa, while some printed almanacs still follow older table-based methods that can differ by hours near the quarter moons.
