What changes at sunrise around 29 December 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 29 December 2027
In clock order through the day, with each length beside it. The three avoided windows come out at 78 minutes apiece because that is an eighth of this particular 10 h 21 m day — the arithmetic is in the next table.
| Window | Time (IST) | Length |
|---|---|---|
| Brahma Muhurat | 05:36-07:12 | 96 min |
| Sunrise | 07:12 | an instant |
| Yamaghanta Kaal | 08:30-09:47 | 77 min |
| Gulika Kaal | 11:05-12:22 | 77 min |
| Abhijit Muhurat | 12:02-12:43 | 41 min |
| Rahu Kaal | 12:22-13:40 | 78 min |
| Sunset | 17:33 | an instant |
The eight parts of 29 December 2027
Sunrise 07:12 to sunset 17:33 is 621 minutes, so each eighth runs 77.6 minutes. Which three of the eight carry names depends on the weekday, and on Wednesday they fall here. This day is 2 minutes longer than the shortest day in the table, and 217 minutes shorter than the longest, and every window above stretches or shrinks with it.
| Part | From | To | Named |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 07:12 | 08:30 | — |
| 2 | 08:30 | 09:47 | Yamaghanta |
| 3 | 09:47 | 11:05 | — |
| 4 | 11:05 | 12:23 | Gulika |
| 5 | 12:23 | 13:40 | Rahu Kaal |
| 6 | 13:40 | 14:58 | — |
| 7 | 14:58 | 16:15 | — |
| 8 | 16:15 | 17:33 | — |
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 29 December 2027 — all twelve rashis
One Moon, twelve answers: the house is the distance from your janma rashi to Sagittarius. 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 | 9 | Bhagya — fortune, dharma and long journeys | Middling | — |
| ♉︎Taurus | 8 | Randhra — upheaval, the hidden and longevity | Avoided | today |
| ♊︎Gemini | 7 | Kalatra — partnership, spouse and trade | Favourable | 30 Dec |
| ♋︎Cancer | 6 | Shatru — competition, debt and disease | Favourable | — |
| ♌︎Leo | 5 | Putra — children, learning and creativity | Middling | — |
| ♍︎Virgo | 4 | Bandhu — home, mother and comfort | Avoided | — |
| ♎︎Libra | 3 | Sahaja — effort, siblings and short journeys | Favourable | — |
| ♏︎Scorpio | 2 | Dhana — wealth, speech and family | Middling | — |
| ♐︎Sagittarius | 1 | Tanu — the body and the self | Favourable | — |
| ♑︎Capricorn | 12 | Vyaya — expenditure, release and distant places | Avoided | — |
| ♒︎Aquarius | 11 | Labha — gain, income and networks | Favourable | — |
| ♓︎Pisces | 10 | Karma — action, career and standing | Favourable | — |
Taurus holds the window while the Moon is in Sagittarius — still there at sunrise on 29 December 2027, and in Capricorn by sunrise on 30 December 2027, when Sagittarius 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 29 December 2027
Counted from your janma nakshatra to Purva Ashadha, 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 | Purva Ashadha, Purva Phalguni, Bharani |
| 2. Sampat | wealth; the strongest for anything undertaken for gain | Moola, Magha, Ashwini |
| 3. Vipat | danger and loss; not chosen for beginnings or travel | Jyeshtha, Ashlesha, Revati |
| 4. Kshema | well-being; for what needs to hold rather than to win | Anuradha, Pushya, Uttara Bhadrapada |
| 5. Pratyari | obstruction; avoided where another party must consent | Vishakha, Punarvasu, Purva Bhadrapada |
| 6. Sadhaka | accomplishment; for finishing rather than starting | Swati, Ardra, Shatabhisha |
| 7. Vadha | harm; the heaviest of the three, rejected outright | Chitra, Mrigashira, Dhanishta |
| 8. Mitra | friendship; for dealings with people rather than things | Hasta, Rohini, Shravana |
| 9. Ati-Mitra | close friendship, also Parama Mitra; the mildest of the nine | Uttara Phalguni, Krittika, Uttara Ashadha |
Purva Ashadha is the sunrise nakshatra again on no further date inside this table, which ends at 2027-12-31. Find your nakshatra if you do not know it.
FAQ
Questions about 29 December 2027
What is the tithi on 29 December 2027?+
Shukla Dwitiya, in Shukla Paksha, at sunrise (07:12) in New Delhi. Shukla Pratipada was the tithi at sunrise the previous day. By the next sunrise it is Shukla Tritiya.
What is the Rahu Kaal on 29 December 2027 in New Delhi?+
12:22-13:40 — 78 minutes, which is one-eighth of this 10 h 21 m day. It is the 5th of the eight equal parts between sunrise (07:12) and sunset (17:33), because that is the part Wednesday takes. Yamaghanta is 08:30-09:47 and Gulika 11:05-12:22 on the same construction.
How long is the day on 29 December 2027, and how long is each part?+
Sunrise to sunset is 10 h 21 m in New Delhi, so each of the eight parts runs 77.6 minutes. That is 2 minutes longer than the shortest day in this two-year table (10 h 19 m on 17 December 2026), and 217 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 29 December 2027?+
Purva Ashadha, at sunrise, with the Moon at 26.6° of Sagittarius. 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 29 December 2027?+
Taurus (Vrishabha) — the Moon is in Sagittarius, which is the eighth rashi from Taurus. Exactly one rashi qualifies on any date. The Moon is still in Sagittarius at sunrise on 29 December 2027 and in Capricorn by sunrise on 30 December 2027, at which point Sagittarius takes over the window.
When is my next Chandrashtama after 29 December 2027?+
Counted forward from this date: Aries beyond this table; Taurus 29 December 2027; Gemini 30 December 2027; Cancer beyond this table; Leo beyond this table; Virgo beyond this table; Libra beyond this table; Scorpio beyond this table; Sagittarius beyond this table; Capricorn beyond this table; Aquarius beyond this table; Pisces beyond this table. Each rashi gets one window a lunar month, lasting two or three sunrises.
Is 29 December 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.
