Panchang
Today is Ashtami of Shukla Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Shatabhisha Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Durgashtami. Rahu Kaal: 7:54 am–9:13 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:30 am to 12:13 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Monday, 6 December 2027, the tithi in Ayodhya is Ashtami, from 09:38 pm (prev day) to 12:01 am (next day), followed by Navami, from 12:01 am (next day) to 01:51 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shatabhisha, from 08:41 am (prev day) to 11:40 am, then Purva Bhadrapada, from 11:40 am to 02:15 pm (next day) on Monday, 6 December 2027 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Monday) runs from 07:54 am to 09:13 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 Monday, 6 December 2027, sunrise is at 06:35 am and sunset at 05:08 pm; moonrise is at 12:05 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:30 am to 12:13 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 06:35 am–07:54 am; Shubh 09:13 am–10:32 am; Labh 02:30 pm–03:49 pm; Amrit 03:49 pm–05:08 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.
