Panchang
Today is Pratipada of Krishna Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Ashwini Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 8:53 am–10:20 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:23 am to 12:09 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 16 October 2027, the tithi in Ayodhya is Pratipada, from 07:17 pm (prev day) to 07:14 pm, followed by Dwitiya, from 07:14 pm to 06:44 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashwini, from 11:29 pm (prev day) to 11:59 pm, then Bharani, from 11:59 pm to 12:03 am (next day) on Saturday, 16 October 2027 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Saturday) runs from 08:53 am to 10:20 am. It is a period of about 90 minutes that is traditionally avoided for starting new ventures; its timing depends on the weekday and on local sunrise and sunset, so it differs from city to city.
In Ayodhya on Saturday, 16 October 2027, sunrise is at 06:00 am and sunset at 05:32 pm; moonrise is at 05:46 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:23 am to 12:09 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:27 am–08:53 am; Labh 01:13 pm–02:39 pm; Amrit 02:39 pm–04:06 pm. Choghadiya divides the day and the night into eight parts each; Amrit, Shubh and Labh are the auspicious ones.
The Panchang is computed for the exact coordinates of Ayodhya (26.79°N, 82.20°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Ayodhya's local time.
“Panchang” means “five limbs”: tithi (lunar day), vaar (weekday), nakshatra (the lunar mansion the Moon occupies), yoga (a Sun–Moon angular combination) and karana (half of a tithi). Together with Rahu Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat and choghadiya, they are used to choose favourable times for prayers, travel and new beginnings.
