Hora in Varanasi today

Hora in Varanasi today, Saturday, September 19, 2026, begins at sunrise, 5:45 AM, with the hour of Saturn, since a Saturday always opens on its own lord. Daylight here is 12 hr 13 min, so each of the twelve day horas is 1 hr 1 min; the night from 5:58 PM is 11 hr 48 min, so each night hora is 59 min. A "planetary hour" is only sixty minutes at the equinox.

The benefic hours in Varanasi’s daylight today (Jupiter, Venus, Mercury and the Moon) are Jupiter 6:46 AM – 7:47 AM, Venus 9:50 AM – 10:51 AM, Mercury 10:51 AM – 11:52 AM, Moon 11:52 AM – 12:53 PM, Jupiter 1:54 PM – 2:55 PM, Venus 4:57 PM – 5:58 PM. Sun, Mars and Saturn hours are used for their own kinds of work rather than avoided outright; the table gives each hour’s traditional use.
