How Rahu kaal moves through the year in Vancouver
Rahu kaal is one eighth of the time between sunrise and sunset, and the weekday decides which eighth. Because the day itself changes length, so does Rahu kaal. In Vancouver in 2026:
| Earliest sunrise | 05:12, around 13 June |
|---|---|
| Latest sunrise | 09:14, around 29 December |
| Longest day | 16 h 02 min, around 21 June |
| Shortest day | 7 h 58 min, around 21 December |
| Rahu kaal lasts | About 60 to 120 minutes |
So a fixed “Rahu kaal on Monday is 07:30 to 09:00” rule, which assumes a 06:00 to 18:00 day, can be well off in Vancouver. The weekday rule, and what Rahu kaal means.
