Panchang
Today is Trayodashi of Krishna Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Punarvasu Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Shivaratri and Krishna Pradosh Vrat. Rahu Kaal: 10:27 am–12:04 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:38 am to 12:30 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Friday, 18 August 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Trayodashi, from 01:44 am to 11:01 pm, followed by Chaturdashi, from 11:01 pm to 07:48 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Punarvasu, from 05:00 pm (prev day) to 03:18 pm, then Pushya, from 03:18 pm to 01:02 pm (next day) on Friday, 18 August 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Friday) runs from 10:27 am to 12:04 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 Friday, 18 August 2028, sunrise is at 05:34 am and sunset at 06:35 pm; moonrise is at 02:54 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:38 am to 12:30 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 07:11 am–08:49 am; Amrit 08:49 am–10:27 am; Shubh 12:04 pm–01:42 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.
