Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Krishna Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Shatabhisha Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Shivaratri. Rahu Kaal: 10:35 am–12:07 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:43 am to 12:32 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Friday, 24 March 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Chaturdashi, from 05:34 am to 07:57 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shatabhisha, from 11:22 am (prev day) to 02:24 pm, then Purva Bhadrapada, from 02:24 pm to 05:11 pm (next day) on Friday, 24 March 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Friday) runs from 10:35 am to 12:07 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 Friday, 24 March 2028, sunrise is at 06:00 am and sunset at 06:14 pm; moonrise is at 04:43 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:43 am to 12:32 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 07:32 am–09:03 am; Amrit 09:03 am–10:35 am; Shubh 12:07 pm–01:39 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.
