How this is calculated
The time between sunrise and sunset is divided into eight equal parts. One part is “ruled” by Rahu, and which part depends on the weekday — on Sunday it is the 8th. Today's daytime is 6:06 AM to 8:02 PM. Because it depends on your local sunrise, Rahu Kaal shifts by city and by date.
