1. Rahukalam
Rahukalam is a daily inauspicious time associated with Rahu, the shadow planet in Vedic astrology. This period is considered unfit for beginning any new tasks, especially things related to wealth, business, or travel. Do’s:
Use Rahukalam for regular activities that do not require a positive outcome. Don’ts:
Avoid starting any new ventures, signing important documents, or making major financial decisions during Rahukalam.

Do’s:
You may use this time for certain karmic activities or spiritual work.
Don’ts:
Avoid starting new projects, marriage rituals, or significant transactions during Gulika Kalam.

Refrain from undertaking journeys, starting new ventures, or engaging in auspicious activities during Yamaganda Kalam.
