Panchang
Today is Dwitiya of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Hasta Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 11:54 am–1:25 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 20 September 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Dwitiya, from 08:01 pm (prev day) to 04:19 pm, followed by Tritiya, from 04:19 pm to 01:01 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Hasta, from 12:17 pm (prev day) to 09:18 am, then Chitra, from 09:18 am to 06:38 am (next day) on Wednesday, 20 September 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Wednesday) runs from 11:54 am to 01:25 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, 20 September 2028, sunrise is at 05:48 am and sunset at 05:59 pm; moonrise is at 07:18 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 05:48 am–07:20 am; Amrit 07:20 am–08:51 am; Shubh 10:22 am–11:54 am; Labh 04:28 pm–05:59 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.
