Yamagandam on Saturday
By Global Panchang Team · Updated
On Saturdays, Yamagandam is the 6th of the eight parts of the day (sunrise to sunset). With sunrise at 6:00 and sunset at 6:00 that is 1:30 PM â 3:00 PM; in your city it moves with the actual sunrise and sunset, so check the exact window below. Yamagandam is an inauspicious period ruled by Yama. Like Rahu Kalam, it is avoided for new starts and journeys, especially in South India; it is considered the stronger of the two for travel.

How it is worked out
The time from sunrise to sunset is divided into eight equal parts. Rahu Kalam, Yamagandam and Gulika Kalam each take a fixed part by weekday (the table above). Because every city has its own sunrise and sunset, the same weekday gives different clock times in Dallas, London and Hyderabad, and different times in summer and winter.

Questions
What time is Yamagandam on Saturday?
With sunrise at 6:00 and sunset at 6:00, 1:30 PM â 3:00 PM. It is the 6th of eight equal parts of the daylight, so in your city it shifts with the actual sunrise; the table above gives the exact window for the next Saturday in major cities.
Is Yamagandam the same in the USA and India?
The rule is the same (the same part of the day on the same weekday), but the clock time is not: it depends on local sunrise and sunset. Use your own city, not a time printed for India.
What should I avoid during Yamagandam?
New beginnings: starting a journey, a business, a purchase, signing papers or a ceremony. Routine work, prayer and anything already under way can continue. Confirm important muhurtams with your priest.
