What changes at sunrise around 10 August 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 10 August 2026
In clock order through the day, with each length beside it. The three avoided windows come out at 99 minutes apiece because that is an eighth of this particular 13 h 18 m day — the arithmetic is in the next table.
| Window | Time (IST) | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Brahma Muhurat | 04:11-05:47 | 96 min |
| Sunrise | 05:47 | an instant |
| Rahu Kaal | 07:27-09:06 | 99 min |
| Yamaghanta Kaal | 10:46-12:26 | 100 min |
| Abhijit Muhurat | 11:59-12:52 | 53 min |
| Gulika Kaal | 14:06-15:45 | 99 min |
| Sunset | 19:05 | an instant |
The eight parts of 10 August 2026
Sunrise 05:47 to sunset 19:05 is 798 minutes, so each eighth runs 99.8 minutes. Which three of the eight carry names depends on the weekday, and on Monday they fall here. This day is 179 minutes longer than the shortest day in the table, and 40 minutes shorter than the longest, and every window above stretches or shrinks with it.
| Part | From | To | Named |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 05:47 | 07:27 | — |
| 2 | 07:27 | 09:07 | Rahu Kaal |
| 3 | 09:07 | 10:46 | — |
| 4 | 10:46 | 12:26 | Yamaghanta |
| 5 | 12:26 | 14:06 | — |
| 6 | 14:06 | 15:46 | Gulika |
| 7 | 15:46 | 17:25 | — |
| 8 | 17:25 | 19:05 | — |
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 10 August 2026 — all twelve rashis
One Moon, twelve answers: the house is the distance from your janma rashi to Gemini. 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 | 3 | Sahaja — effort, siblings and short journeys | Favourable | 20 Aug |
| ♉︎Taurus | 2 | Dhana — wealth, speech and family | Middling | 23 Aug |
| ♊︎Gemini | 1 | Tanu — the body and the self | Favourable | 25 Aug |
| ♋︎Cancer | 12 | Vyaya — expenditure, release and distant places | Avoided | 28 Aug |
| ♌︎Leo | 11 | Labha — gain, income and networks | Favourable | 30 Aug |
| ♍︎Virgo | 10 | Karma — action, career and standing | Favourable | 1 Sep |
| ♎︎Libra | 9 | Bhagya — fortune, dharma and long journeys | Middling | 4 Sep |
| ♏︎Scorpio | 8 | Randhra — upheaval, the hidden and longevity | Avoided | today |
| ♐︎Sagittarius | 7 | Kalatra — partnership, spouse and trade | Favourable | 11 Aug |
| ♑︎Capricorn | 6 | Shatru — competition, debt and disease | Favourable | 14 Aug |
| ♒︎Aquarius | 5 | Putra — children, learning and creativity | Middling | 16 Aug |
| ♓︎Pisces | 4 | Bandhu — home, mother and comfort | Avoided | 18 Aug |
Scorpio holds the window while the Moon is in Gemini — still there at sunrise on 10 August 2026, and in Cancer by sunrise on 11 August 2026, when Gemini 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 10 August 2026
Counted from your janma nakshatra to Ardra, 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 | Ardra, Shatabhisha, Swati |
| 2. Sampat | wealth; the strongest for anything undertaken for gain | Mrigashira, Dhanishta, Chitra |
| 3. Vipat | danger and loss; not chosen for beginnings or travel | Rohini, Shravana, Hasta |
| 4. Kshema | well-being; for what needs to hold rather than to win | Krittika, Uttara Ashadha, Uttara Phalguni |
| 5. Pratyari | obstruction; avoided where another party must consent | Bharani, Purva Ashadha, Purva Phalguni |
| 6. Sadhaka | accomplishment; for finishing rather than starting | Ashwini, Moola, Magha |
| 7. Vadha | harm; the heaviest of the three, rejected outright | Revati, Jyeshtha, Ashlesha |
| 8. Mitra | friendship; for dealings with people rather than things | Uttara Bhadrapada, Anuradha, Pushya |
| 9. Ati-Mitra | close friendship, also Parama Mitra; the mildest of the nine | Purva Bhadrapada, Vishakha, Punarvasu |
Ardra is the sunrise nakshatra again on 6 September 2026, 3 October 2026, 31 October 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 10 August 2026
What is the tithi on 10 August 2026?+
Krishna Dwadashi, in Krishna Paksha, at sunrise (05:47) in New Delhi. Krishna Ekadashi was the tithi at sunrise the previous day. By the next sunrise it is Krishna Chaturdashi.
What is the Rahu Kaal on 10 August 2026 in New Delhi?+
07:27-09:06 — 99 minutes, which is one-eighth of this 13 h 18 m day. It is the 2nd of the eight equal parts between sunrise (05:47) and sunset (19:05), because that is the part Monday takes. Yamaghanta is 10:46-12:26 and Gulika 14:06-15:45 on the same construction.
How long is the day on 10 August 2026, and how long is each part?+
Sunrise to sunset is 13 h 18 m in New Delhi, so each of the eight parts runs 99.8 minutes. That is 179 minutes longer than the shortest day in this two-year table (10 h 19 m on 17 December 2026), and 40 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 10 August 2026?+
Ardra, at sunrise, with the Moon at 15.9° of Gemini. It is the sunrise nakshatra again on 6 September 2026, 3 October 2026, 31 October 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 10 August 2026?+
Scorpio (Vrishchika) — the Moon is in Gemini, which is the eighth rashi from Scorpio. Exactly one rashi qualifies on any date. The Moon is still in Gemini at sunrise on 10 August 2026 and in Cancer by sunrise on 11 August 2026, at which point Gemini takes over the window.
When is my next Chandrashtama after 10 August 2026?+
Counted forward from this date: Aries 20 August 2026; Taurus 23 August 2026; Gemini 25 August 2026; Cancer 28 August 2026; Leo 30 August 2026; Virgo 1 September 2026; Libra 4 September 2026; Scorpio 10 August 2026; Sagittarius 11 August 2026; Capricorn 14 August 2026; Aquarius 16 August 2026; Pisces 18 August 2026. Each rashi gets one window a lunar month, lasting two or three sunrises.
Is 10 August 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.
