Panchang
Today is Saptami of Shukla Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Punarvasu Nakshatra. It is observed as Ganga Saptami. Rahu Kaal: 7:01 am–8:40 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:32 am to 12:24 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Monday, 1 May 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Saptami, from 10:29 pm (prev day) to 08:52 pm, followed by Ashtami, from 08:52 pm to 06:55 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Punarvasu, from 07:23 am (prev day) to 06:42 am, then Pushya, from 06:42 am to 05:42 am (next day) on Monday, 1 May 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Monday) runs from 07:01 am to 08:40 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 Monday, 1 May 2028, sunrise is at 05:22 am and sunset at 06:34 pm; moonrise is at 10:49 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:32 am to 12:24 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 05:22 am–07:01 am; Shubh 08:40 am–10:19 am; Labh 03:16 pm–04:55 pm; Amrit 04:55 pm–06:34 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.
