About Rahu Kaal in Cologne

Cologne's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Cologne's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:35 AM GMT+2 (10:05 AM IST). Cologne is 3h 30m behind IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Cologne 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 Cologne's specific latitude (50.9364°) and longitude (6.9528°). Today Cologne has 13 hr 54 min of daylight (sunrise 6:35 AM, sunset 8:29 PMGMT+2).

Today's Rahu Kaal (10:03 AM–11:47 AM GMT+2) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:35 AM GMT+2) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:35 AM–7:19 AM (44 min) and evening 7:44 PM–8:29 PM (45 min) — all derived from Cologne's precise coordinates.
