What changes at sunrise around 11 March 2026
Each value is the one current at sunrise, the convention an almanac uses when a single figure has to stand for a civil date. Neighbouring days are here because that convention hides movement: a limb can hold across two sunrises or turn over twice. What each limb is.

The seven windows on 11 March 2026
In clock order through the day, with each length beside it. The three avoided windows come out at 89 minutes apiece because that is an eighth of this particular 11 h 52 m day — the arithmetic is in the next table.
| Window | Time (IST) | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Brahma Muhurat | 04:59-06:35 | 96 min |
| Sunrise | 06:35 | an instant |
| Yamaghanta Kaal | 08:04-09:33 | 89 min |
| Gulika Kaal | 11:02-12:31 | 89 min |
| Abhijit Muhurat | 12:07-12:55 | 48 min |
| Rahu Kaal | 12:31-14:00 | 89 min |
| Sunset | 18:27 | an instant |
The eight parts of 11 March 2026
Sunrise 06:35 to sunset 18:27 is 712 minutes, so each eighth runs 89.0 minutes. Which three of the eight carry names depends on the weekday, and on Wednesday they fall here. This day is 93 minutes longer than the shortest day in the table, and 126 minutes shorter than the longest, and every window above stretches or shrinks with it.
| Part | From | To | Named |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 06:35 | 08:04 | — |
| 2 | 08:04 | 09:33 | Yamaghanta |
| 3 | 09:33 | 11:02 | — |
| 4 | 11:02 | 12:31 | Gulika |
| 5 | 12:31 | 14:00 | Rahu Kaal |
| 6 | 14:00 | 15:29 | — |
| 7 | 15:29 | 16:58 | — |
| 8 | 16:58 | 18:27 | — |
The five parts without a name are not auspicious by elimination — they are simply unmarked. For anywhere other than New Delhi the panchang tool recomputes all of this from that city’s own sunrise.
Chandra Bala on 11 March 2026 — all twelve rashis
One Moon, twelve answers: the house is the distance from your janma rashi to Scorpio. The last column counts forward to your own next Chandrashtama from this date, which is a different date for every rashi.
| Janma rashi | House | Bhava | Class | Next Chandrashtama |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ♈︎Aries | 8 | Randhra — upheaval, the hidden and longevity | Avoided | today |
| ♉︎Taurus | 7 | Kalatra — partnership, spouse and trade | Favourable | 12 Mar |
| ♊︎Gemini | 6 | Shatru — competition, debt and disease | Favourable | 15 Mar |
| ♋︎Cancer | 5 | Putra — children, learning and creativity | Middling | 17 Mar |
| ♌︎Leo | 4 | Bandhu — home, mother and comfort | Avoided | 19 Mar |
| ♍︎Virgo | 3 | Sahaja — effort, siblings and short journeys | Favourable | 21 Mar |
| ♎︎Libra | 2 | Dhana — wealth, speech and family | Middling | 23 Mar |
| ♏︎Scorpio | 1 | Tanu — the body and the self | Favourable | 25 Mar |
| ♐︎Sagittarius | 12 | Vyaya — expenditure, release and distant places | Avoided | 28 Mar |
| ♑︎Capricorn | 11 | Labha — gain, income and networks | Favourable | 30 Mar |
| ♒︎Aquarius | 10 | Karma — action, career and standing | Favourable | 1 Apr |
| ♓︎Pisces | 9 | Bhagya — fortune, dharma and long journeys | Middling | 4 Apr |
Aries holds the window while the Moon is in Scorpio — still there at sunrise on 11 March 2026, and in Sagittarius by sunrise on 12 March 2026, when Scorpio takes over. The crossing is somewhere between those two sunrises; the table samples the Moon once a day, so naming a minute would be inventing precision.
Tara Bala from your birth star on 11 March 2026
Counted from your janma nakshatra to Jyeshtha, the day’s. Nine taras repeat three times across the 27, so each is reached from exactly three birth stars — find yours in the right-hand column and read across.
| Tara | What it signifies | If your janma nakshatra is |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Janma | the birth star — intensifies rather than helps | Jyeshtha, Ashlesha, Revati |
| 2. Sampat | wealth; the strongest for anything undertaken for gain | Anuradha, Pushya, Uttara Bhadrapada |
| 3. Vipat | danger and loss; not chosen for beginnings or travel | Vishakha, Punarvasu, Purva Bhadrapada |
| 4. Kshema | well-being; for what needs to hold rather than to win | Swati, Ardra, Shatabhisha |
| 5. Pratyari | obstruction; avoided where another party must consent | Chitra, Mrigashira, Dhanishta |
| 6. Sadhaka | accomplishment; for finishing rather than starting | Hasta, Rohini, Shravana |
| 7. Vadha | harm; the heaviest of the three, rejected outright | Uttara Phalguni, Krittika, Uttara Ashadha |
| 8. Mitra | friendship; for dealings with people rather than things | Purva Phalguni, Bharani, Purva Ashadha |
| 9. Ati-Mitra | close friendship, also Parama Mitra; the mildest of the nine | Magha, Ashwini, Moola |
Jyeshtha is the sunrise nakshatra again on 7 April 2026, 5 May 2026, 1 June 2026 — so the nine columns above shift wholesale on those dates and the tara you land on changes with them. Find your nakshatra if you do not know it.
FAQ
Questions about 11 March 2026
What is the tithi on 11 March 2026?+
Krishna Ashtami, in Krishna Paksha, at sunrise (06:35) in New Delhi. Krishna Saptami was the tithi at sunrise the previous day. By the next sunrise it is Krishna Navami.
What is the Rahu Kaal on 11 March 2026 in New Delhi?+
12:31-14:00 — 89 minutes, which is one-eighth of this 11 h 52 m day. It is the 5th of the eight equal parts between sunrise (06:35) and sunset (18:27), because that is the part Wednesday takes. Yamaghanta is 08:04-09:33 and Gulika 11:02-12:31 on the same construction.
How long is the day on 11 March 2026, and how long is each part?+
Sunrise to sunset is 11 h 52 m in New Delhi, so each of the eight parts runs 89.0 minutes. That is 93 minutes longer than the shortest day in this two-year table (10 h 19 m on 17 December 2026), and 126 minutes shorter than the longest (13 h 58 m on 14 June 2026). Every window on this page is a fraction of that length, so all of them move with it.
Which nakshatra is the Moon in on 11 March 2026?+
Jyeshtha, at sunrise, with the Moon at 22.4° of Scorpio. It is the sunrise nakshatra again on 7 April 2026, 5 May 2026, 1 June 2026. The degree is given because the nakshatra alone does not fix the rashi — nine of the 27 straddle a sign boundary.
Which rashi is in Chandrashtama on 11 March 2026?+
Aries (Mesha) — the Moon is in Scorpio, which is the eighth rashi from Aries. Exactly one rashi qualifies on any date. The Moon is still in Scorpio at sunrise on 11 March 2026 and in Sagittarius by sunrise on 12 March 2026, at which point Scorpio takes over the window.
When is my next Chandrashtama after 11 March 2026?+
Counted forward from this date: Aries 11 March 2026; Taurus 12 March 2026; Gemini 15 March 2026; Cancer 17 March 2026; Leo 19 March 2026; Virgo 21 March 2026; Libra 23 March 2026; Scorpio 25 March 2026; Sagittarius 28 March 2026; Capricorn 30 March 2026; Aquarius 1 April 2026; Pisces 4 April 2026. Each rashi gets one window a lunar month, lasting two or three sunrises.
Is 11 March 2026 an auspicious day?+
Not a question a dated page can answer. Six of the twelve houses are classed favourable, so 6 of the twelve rashis sit in a favourable position on this date — and Tara Bala, the tithi, the karana and your own chart all still have to be applied. The combined filter passes roughly a third of days for any one person.
Where is this panchang computed for, and how?+
New Delhi (28.6139°N, 77.209°E), from the JPL DE421 ephemeris with the Lahiri ayanamsa, over 2026-01-01 to 2027-12-31. Sunrise, sunset and the six windows derived from them are specific to this latitude and longitude.
