Rahu Kaal is a fixed window each day that’s considered inauspicious for starting new auspicious activities.
How Rahu Kaal’s timing is set
The period between sunrise and sunset is split into 8 equal parts. Each day of the week has a fixed part assigned as Rahu Kaal, so it falls at a different clock time every day.
What’s better to avoid
New beginnings, joining a new job, starting a new business, beginning a journey, or signing an important contract, are typically avoided during Rahu Kaal.
What’s perfectly fine
Work already in progress, ordinary daily tasks, or anything urgent in an emergency, none of that needs to pause. Rahu Kaal is only a caution window for fresh, auspicious starts.
