Rahu Kaal (avoid new beginnings)
5:01 PM – 6:56 PM
Sunrise 5:33 AM · Sunset 8:51 PM — all times local to Saskatoon
Rahu Kaal is the daily inauspicious period ruled by Rahu — traditionally avoided for beginnings: journeys, purchases, signings, and new ventures. It is one-eighth of the local day (sunrise to sunset), and its position depends on the weekday — which is why Saskatoon's Rahu Kaal differs from Delhi's. Times published for IST are wrong for Canada residents; the window above is computed from Saskatoon's actual sunrise today.
Rahu Kaal is one of three inauspicious windows the tradition marks each day. All three divide the same sunrise-to-sunset span into eight parts; the weekday decides which part each takes.
| Rahu Kaal | 5:01 PM – 6:56 PM |
| Yamaganda Kaal | 9:22 AM – 11:17 AM |
| Gulika Kaal | 1:12 PM – 3:07 PM |
Gulika Kaal is generally treated as the least severe of the three, and Rahu Kaal the one most commonly observed.

| Monday, Aug 10 | 7:34 AM – 9:27 AM |
| Tuesday, Aug 11 | 4:54 PM – 6:46 PM |
Times shift through the week as sunrise and sunset move, and the window jumps position with the weekday.
