Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Shukla Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Rohini Nakshatra. It is observed as Shukla Pradosh Vrat. Rahu Kaal: 4:05 pm–5:25 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:46 am to 12:29 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 9 January 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Dwadashi, from 07:37 pm (prev day) to 05:57 pm, followed by Trayodashi, from 05:57 pm to 03:37 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Rohini, from 03:20 am to 02:06 am (next day), then Mrigashira, from 02:06 am (next day) to 12:15 am (next day) on Sunday, 9 January 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Sunday) runs from 04:05 pm to 05:25 pm. 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 Sunday, 9 January 2028, sunrise is at 06:51 am and sunset at 05:25 pm; moonrise is at 02:24 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:46 am to 12:29 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:29 am–10:48 am; Amrit 10:48 am–12:08 pm; Shubh 01:27 pm–02:46 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.
