Panchang
Today is Trayodashi of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Ashlesha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 1:40 pm–3:09 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:48 am to 12:35 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 9 March 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Trayodashi, from 05:28 pm (prev day) to 02:02 pm, followed by Chaturdashi, from 02:02 pm to 10:21 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashlesha, from 03:00 pm (prev day) to 12:22 pm, then Magha, from 12:22 pm to 09:28 am (next day) on Thursday, 9 March 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Thursday) runs from 01:40 pm to 03:09 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 Thursday, 9 March 2028, sunrise is at 06:16 am and sunset at 06:07 pm; moonrise is at 04:22 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:48 am to 12:35 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:16 am–07:45 am; Labh 12:11 pm–01:40 pm; Amrit 01:40 pm–03:09 pm; Shubh 04:38 pm–06:07 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.
