What changes at sunrise around 13 April 2027
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 13 April 2027
In clock order through the day, with each length beside it. The three avoided windows come out at 96 minutes apiece because that is an eighth of this particular 12 h 47 m day — the arithmetic is in the next table.
| Window | Time (IST) | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Brahma Muhurat | 04:22-05:58 | 96 min |
| Sunrise | 05:58 | an instant |
| Yamaghanta Kaal | 09:10-10:46 | 96 min |
| Abhijit Muhurat | 11:56-12:47 | 51 min |
| Gulika Kaal | 12:22-13:57 | 95 min |
| Rahu Kaal | 15:33-17:09 | 96 min |
| Sunset | 18:45 | an instant |
The eight parts of 13 April 2027
Sunrise 05:58 to sunset 18:45 is 767 minutes, so each eighth runs 95.9 minutes. Which three of the eight carry names depends on the weekday, and on Tuesday they fall here. This day is 148 minutes longer than the shortest day in the table, and 71 minutes shorter than the longest, and every window above stretches or shrinks with it.
| Part | From | To | Named |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 05:58 | 07:34 | — |
| 2 | 07:34 | 09:10 | — |
| 3 | 09:10 | 10:46 | Yamaghanta |
| 4 | 10:46 | 12:22 | — |
| 5 | 12:22 | 13:57 | Gulika |
| 6 | 13:57 | 15:33 | — |
| 7 | 15:33 | 17:09 | Rahu Kaal |
| 8 | 17:09 | 18:45 | — |
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 13 April 2027 — 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 | 23 Apr |
| ♉︎Taurus | 2 | Dhana — wealth, speech and family | Middling | 26 Apr |
| ♊︎Gemini | 1 | Tanu — the body and the self | Favourable | 28 Apr |
| ♋︎Cancer | 12 | Vyaya — expenditure, release and distant places | Avoided | 1 May |
| ♌︎Leo | 11 | Labha — gain, income and networks | Favourable | 3 May |
| ♍︎Virgo | 10 | Karma — action, career and standing | Favourable | 5 May |
| ♎︎Libra | 9 | Bhagya — fortune, dharma and long journeys | Middling | 8 May |
| ♏︎Scorpio | 8 | Randhra — upheaval, the hidden and longevity | Avoided | today |
| ♐︎Sagittarius | 7 | Kalatra — partnership, spouse and trade | Favourable | 14 Apr |
| ♑︎Capricorn | 6 | Shatru — competition, debt and disease | Favourable | 17 Apr |
| ♒︎Aquarius | 5 | Putra — children, learning and creativity | Middling | 19 Apr |
| ♓︎Pisces | 4 | Bandhu — home, mother and comfort | Avoided | 21 Apr |
Scorpio holds the window while the Moon is in Gemini — still there at sunrise on 13 April 2027, and in Cancer by sunrise on 14 April 2027, 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 13 April 2027
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 10 May 2027, 6 June 2027, 4 July 2027 — 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 13 April 2027
What is the tithi on 13 April 2027?+
Shukla Saptami, in Shukla Paksha, at sunrise (05:58) in New Delhi. Shukla Shashthi was the tithi at sunrise the previous day. By the next sunrise it is Shukla Ashtami.
What is the Rahu Kaal on 13 April 2027 in New Delhi?+
15:33-17:09 — 96 minutes, which is one-eighth of this 12 h 47 m day. It is the 7th of the eight equal parts between sunrise (05:58) and sunset (18:45), because that is the part Tuesday takes. Yamaghanta is 09:10-10:46 and Gulika 12:22-13:57 on the same construction.
How long is the day on 13 April 2027, and how long is each part?+
Sunrise to sunset is 12 h 47 m in New Delhi, so each of the eight parts runs 95.9 minutes. That is 148 minutes longer than the shortest day in this two-year table (10 h 19 m on 17 December 2026), and 71 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 13 April 2027?+
Ardra, at sunrise, with the Moon at 16.3° of Gemini. It is the sunrise nakshatra again on 10 May 2027, 6 June 2027, 4 July 2027. 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 13 April 2027?+
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 13 April 2027 and in Cancer by sunrise on 14 April 2027, at which point Gemini takes over the window.
When is my next Chandrashtama after 13 April 2027?+
Counted forward from this date: Aries 23 April 2027; Taurus 26 April 2027; Gemini 28 April 2027; Cancer 1 May 2027; Leo 3 May 2027; Virgo 5 May 2027; Libra 8 May 2027; Scorpio 13 April 2027; Sagittarius 14 April 2027; Capricorn 17 April 2027; Aquarius 19 April 2027; Pisces 21 April 2027. Each rashi gets one window a lunar month, lasting two or three sunrises.
Is 13 April 2027 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.
