Daily Summary for Los Angeles: Tuesday is a day of spiritual intensity with Ekadashi and Hasta Nakshatra dominating the morning and early afternoon. However, the Vishti Karana creates a long inauspicious block until 5:52 PM. The most favorable time for important tasks is the Amrit Kaal (10:58 AM – 12:41 PM) and Abhijit Muhurat (12:22 PM – 1:18 PM). After 5:52 PM, the energy shifts to Dwipushkar Yoga, making the evening ideal for spiritual practices and charity.
