Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Shukla Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Mrigashira Nakshatra. It is observed as Yamuna Chhath. Rahu Kaal: 8:58 am–10:31 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:40 am to 12:30 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 1 April 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Shashthi, from 02:36 pm (prev day) to 02:14 pm, followed by Saptami, from 02:14 pm to 01:23 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mrigashira, from 02:19 am to 02:23 am (next day), then Ardra, from 02:23 am (next day) to 01:56 am (next day) on Saturday, 1 April 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Saturday) runs from 08:58 am to 10:31 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, 1 April 2028, sunrise is at 05:51 am and sunset at 06:18 pm; moonrise is at 09:46 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:40 am to 12:30 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:25 am–08:58 am; Labh 01:38 pm–03:11 pm; Amrit 03:11 pm–04:45 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.
