The four windows people confuse
Three inauspicious, one auspicious. All four are eighths of today's solar arc in Munich.
Rahu Kaal
Rahu
17:10 – 18:33
The window to avoid beginning anything new — travel, signing, buying, a first meeting.
Yamaganda
Ketu
13:01 – 14:24
Also avoided for new beginnings, and routinely mistaken for Rahu Kaal.
Gulika Kaal
Saturn
15:47 – 17:10
Saturn's eighth. Traditionally avoided, though held to be the mildest of the three.
Abhijit Muhurat
Brahma
12:39 – 13:23
The opposite: the midday window held to be auspicious for almost anything.

When Munich's clocks change
Munich moves from UTC+2 to UTC+1 on 2026-10-25. The Sun does not change, so Rahu Kaal stays the same eighth of the day, but its clock time jumps: on 2026-10-25 it runs 15:50–17:07 on the new clock, which would have read 16:50–18:07 on the old one. Anything you scheduled by the clock moves with it.
Why Munich needs its own figure
Across the year
In Munich, Rahu Kaal is shortest at 62 minutes and longest at 120 minutes across the year, a spread of 58 minutes set by this city's latitude.
Against the nearest city
Stuttgart is 191 km away, and today its Rahu Kaal runs 17:19–18:42 against Munich's 17:10–18:33. Sunrise differs, so the eighth differs. That gap is the reason this page is computed for Munich rather than for the region.
