About Rahu Kaal in Babylon
Babylon's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Babylon's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:12 AM EDT (3:42 PM IST). Babylon is 9h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Babylon time and the corresponding IST equivalent — useful when coordinating with family in India.
Unlike most panchang apps which show India-based Rahu Kaal, this page calculates the correct inauspicious period for Babylon's specific latitude (40.6925°) and longitude (-73.3586°). Today Babylon has 13 hr 21 min of daylight (sunrise 6:12 AM, sunset 7:33 PMEDT). Babylon observes Daylight Saving Time, so the IST offset changes twice a year — this site handles that automatically.
Today's Rahu Kaal (9:32 AM–11:12 AM EDT) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:12 AM EDT) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:12 AM–6:49 AM (37 min) and evening 6:57 PM–7:33 PM (36 min) — all derived from Babylon's precise coordinates.
