Is Sunday, 20 December 2026 good for naming in Johannesburg?
Not fully — at Johannesburg, South Africa's own sunrise it does not pass every gate for naming: the day-limbs (tithi / yoga / Ganda-Moola) are not all clear
Why can the answer differ from another city?
Muhurta is reckoned at the day's sunrise, and sunrise — and the tithi, nakshatra and yoga in force at it — shifts with longitude and latitude, so Johannesburg's verdict can differ from another city's on the same date.
