Wednesday 8 July 2026 Panchang: Muhurats, Yogas and Travel Advice

According to the Hindu calendar, Wednesday, 8 July 2026, carries several important timings for rituals, business, and travel.

Sunrise lights the horizon at 5:51 am and the sun sets at 7:12 pm. Moonrise is recorded at 12:35 am and moonset at 1:00 pm.

The lunar phase is Ashadha Krishna Paksha Ashtami, lasting until 12:21 pm, after which Navami takes over. The Sun is located in the Revati Nakshatra, while the Moon remains in Revati until the early afternoon (4:00 pm) before shifting into Ashwini.

The day’s auspicious windows include the Brahma Muhurat (4:15 am‑5:03 am) and Amrit Kaal (1:37 pm‑3:11 pm). The most prominent Abhijit Muhurat, regarded as the peak auspicious period, spans 11:59 am to 12:55 pm. Activities started in this slot are believed to be free from the hindrance of Rahu Kaal, which runs from 12:26 pm to 2:10 pm.

Yoga sequences begin with Harshan Yoga at 8:07 am, followed later by Vajra Yoga. Atiganda Yoga is in effect for the whole day. In contrast, Yama Ganda Kaal (7:14 am‑8:59 am) and Gulika Kaal (1:12 pm‑11:56 am) are considered unfavourable for commencing new work.

Astronomically, the Sun transits Gemini and the Moon moves through Pisces. The north direction is identified as Disha‑Shool, recommending avoidance of travel toward the north unless specific astrological remedies are observed.
