Panchang
Today is Dashami of Shukla Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 1:37 pm–3:17 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:31 am to 12:24 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 4 May 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Dashami, from 04:42 pm (prev day) to 02:13 pm, followed by Ekadashi, from 02:13 pm to 11:34 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 02:49 am to 01:01 am (next day), then Uttara Phalguni, from 01:01 am (next day) to 11:05 pm (next day) on Thursday, 4 May 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Thursday) runs from 01:37 pm to 03:17 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, 4 May 2028, sunrise is at 05:20 am and sunset at 06:35 pm; moonrise is at 02:01 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:31 am to 12:24 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 05:20 am–06:59 am; Labh 11:58 am–01:37 pm; Amrit 01:37 pm–03:16 pm; Shubh 04:56 pm–06:35 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.
