Sunrise and brahma muhurta in Calgary through 2027
The panchang is counted from sunrise to sunrise, and the muhurtas are fractions of the actual day and night. In Calgary the daylight lasts from 7h 57m to 16h 32m across the year, so a daytime muhurta (one fifteenth of the day) is anything from 32 to 66 minutes, never a fixed 48.

Local time and daylight saving
All times on this page are in Mountain Time: MST (UTC−7) in winter and MDT (UTC−6) from Sunday 14 March to Sunday 7 November 2027. The change of clocks moves every time by an hour overnight, but not the sky: sunrise, the tithi and the muhurtas carry on as before. India is 12 hours 30 minutes ahead of Calgary in winter and 11 hours 30 minutes ahead during daylight saving, but converting Indian times by the difference gives the wrong Rahu Kaal and choghadiya, because they depend on Calgary’s sunrise and sunset.

How we calculate it
Sunrise and sunset are for the upper edge of the Sun with standard refraction; positions are sidereal with the Lahiri ayanamsa (Swiss Ephemeris). Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana times agree with Drik Panchang to within a minute, and the muhurtas and kaals to the minute. Full details are on the Today page and in Panchang explained.
Frequently asked questions
What is Rahu Kaal today in Calgary?
Rahu Kaal is one of the eight equal parts of the daytime, from sunrise to sunset; which part it is depends on the weekday. The times above are calculated for Calgary’s own sunrise and sunset, in local time, so they change every day and differ from the Indian times.
What time is brahma muhurta in Calgary?
It follows the sunrise. In 2027 it starts as early as 04:21 (around 15 June) and as late as 07:32 (around 1 January). Today’s time is shown above, and on the brahma muhurta page.
When is Diwali 2027 in Calgary?
Diwali (Lakshmi Puja) is on Thu 28 Oct 2027 in Calgary, with the pradosh puja time 18:18–21:07. In India it is on Fri 29 Oct.
Can I use an Indian panchang in Calgary?
Only for the tithi and nakshatra end moments, after converting the time zone. Rahu Kaal, choghadiya, muhurtas and festival dates depend on local sunrise and sunset, so they must be calculated for Calgary. India is 12 hours 30 minutes ahead of Calgary in winter and 11 hours 30 minutes ahead during daylight saving.
