Three windows kept free of new beginnings

Rahu Kaal

08:40 – 10:05

Yamaganda

11:30 – 12:55

Gulika Kaal

14:20 – 15:45

What none of this means. No window here is dangerous, and nothing bad happens to anyone in Rahu Kaal. These are conventions about when to BEGIN things — they are not a reason to delay medicine, a flight, an exam, or anything already underway. VEDAUM will never tell you a time is unsafe.
