Panchang
Today is Ekadashi of Krishna Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Mrigashira Nakshatra. It is observed as Aja Ekadashi and Simha Sankranti. Rahu Kaal: 12:05 pm–1:43 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 16 August 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Ekadashi, from 05:12 am to 03:50 am (next day), followed by Dwadashi, from 03:50 am (next day) to 01:44 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mrigashira, from 06:20 pm (prev day) to 06:02 pm, then Ardra, from 06:02 pm to 05:00 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 16 August 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Cancer.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Wednesday) runs from 12:05 pm to 01:43 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 Wednesday, 16 August 2028, sunrise is at 05:33 am and sunset at 06:37 pm; moonrise is at 12:46 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
There is no Abhijit Muhurat today (Wednesday). Traditionally it is not observed on Wednesdays.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 05:33 am–07:11 am; Amrit 07:11 am–08:49 am; Shubh 10:27 am–12:05 pm; Labh 04:59 pm–06:37 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.
