Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Shukla Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Magha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 1:38 pm–3:12 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:38 am to 12:28 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 6 April 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Dwadashi, from 04:59 am to 01:52 am (next day), followed by Trayodashi, from 01:52 am (next day) to 10:34 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Magha, from 09:41 pm (prev day) to 07:27 pm, then Purva Phalguni, from 07:27 pm to 04:57 pm (next day) on Thursday, 6 April 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Thursday) runs from 01:38 pm to 03:12 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, 6 April 2028, sunrise is at 05:46 am and sunset at 06:21 pm; moonrise is at 03:09 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:38 am to 12:28 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 05:46 am–07:20 am; Labh 12:03 pm–01:38 pm; Amrit 01:38 pm–03:12 pm; Shubh 04:46 pm–06:21 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.
