What Rahu Kaal means

A daily period ruled by Rahu. Muhurat treats it as a hard block for starting anything of consequence.

Mechanically it is one of eight equal parts of the daytime between sunrise and sunset; which part falls on a given day depends on the weekday, and the clock time shifts with the local sunrise — so Rahu Kaal lands at a different time in every city and on every date.
