Kaalam Calculations Rahu Kalam

Om Shreem Vachaspataye Namah

Om Tare Dustare Turye Swaha

 

Dear Frank,

If I understand your question well Then,

 

You have to use Astadala padma chakra, the 8 petal lotus diagram.

also called the Kaalchakra for reckoning Kaala/Yaama rulers.

 

Refer diagram

The planets are placed in chakra in this order.

 

Rahu Sun Mars

 

 

Moon Jupiter

 

 

Saturn Venus Mercury

 

Planets apposite to each other appose each other and can be used find

remedies etc. Like Mercury is against Rahu.

 

To Find Yaama rulers, Each day and night is broken in 8 parts of 1

1/2 hours (3 3/4 Ghatika)(6AM to 6PM, 6PM to 6AM). The first part is

ruled by the day ruler itself and then follows in the clockwise

direction in above circle. At night(from 6PM) the planet apposite to

the weekday begins the cycle.

 

Eg. For Sunday

6AM to 7:30AM Sun

7:30AM to 9:00AM Mars

and

so on

4:30PM to 6:00PM Rahu

now the apposite planet from sun in chakra is Venus

so

6:00PM to 7:30PM Venus

7:30PM to 9:00PM Saturn

and so on

 

 

Please note that some also suggest that the Kaalams should be

 

1. Inequal depending on sunrise/sunset. Sunrise to Sunset divided by

8 parts and similarly for night.

 

2. Mean Time (mean sunrise/sunset which averages to 6:00AM/6:00PM if

that place where the Standard time is reckoned from)

 

3. The local Standard Time as shown by the watch (usually the Mean

time of a place considered the standard for the whole geographic

zone, Like Varanasi/Allahabad Mean time is considered Standard for

Whole of India).

 

Due to Effects of Saturn in Kali Yuga 3rd option should be considered

generally.

 

Warm Regards,

S. Prabhakaran

 

Om Tat Sat.
