About Rahu Kaal in Sydney
Sydney's Rahu Kaal times are calculated from Sydney's actual local sunrise, which today falls at 6:18 AM GMT+10 (1:48 AM IST). Sydney is 4h 30m ahead of IST, so Indian diaspora residents can check this page to see both the local Sydney 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 Sydney's specific latitude (-33.8667°) and longitude (151.2°). Today Sydney has 0 hr of daylight (sunrise 6:18 AM, sunset 5:31 PMGMT+10).
Today's Rahu Kaal (3:06 AM–1:30 AM GMT+10) is calculated from the same local sunrise (6:18 AM GMT+10) that photography tools use for golden hour: morning 6:18 AM–6:52 AM (34 min) and evening 4:58 PM–5:31 PM (33 min) — all derived from Sydney's precise coordinates. Photography planner for Sydney →
