This week's Rahu Kaal in San Francisco
Rahu Kaal is the ~90-minute window ruled by Rahu, the north lunar node. Each weekday takes one of the eight equal parts of the daylight, so the window lands at a different clock time every day — and because it is measured from San Francisco's sunrise and sunset, the same table differs slightly from city to city.

How to use it
Check the table before scheduling anything important in San Francisco: property registrations, interviews, launches, travel departures or pujas. If you must act inside the window, tradition recommends completing preparations beforehand so the beginning itself falls outside Rahu Kaal. Routine work, ongoing projects and daily worship are not restricted.
Pair Rahu Kaal with the Choghadiya for San Francisco and the Panchang for San Francisco for a complete daily timing picture.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is today's Rahu Kaal time in San Francisco?
Today (Friday, Nov 13), Rahu Kaal in San Francisco runs from 10:39 AM to 11:55 AM. The window shifts a few minutes each day with sunrise and sunset.
Why is Rahu Kaal in San Francisco different from other cities?
Rahu Kaal is a fraction of daylight, not a fixed clock time. Sunrise in San Francisco (United States) differs from cities further east or west, so the same weekday rule produces a slightly different window in every city.
What should I avoid during Rahu Kaal?
Traditional Muhurta guidance advises against starting new ventures during Rahu Kaal — signing contracts, starting journeys, investments, marriage ceremonies or major decisions. Work already in progress, routine tasks and worship are considered fine.
Does Rahu Kaal fall at the same time every day in San Francisco?
No. Each weekday has its own slot of the 8-part day, and sunrise/sunset shift through the year, so the clock time moves daily. That is why the weekly table above is computed for the city rather than copied from a generic list.
