Panchang
Today is Panchami of Shukla Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Jyeshtha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 4:01 pm–5:26 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:22 am to 12:08 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 22 October 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Panchami, from 09:49 pm (prev day) to 08:55 pm, followed by Shashthi, from 08:55 pm to 08:53 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Kartika (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Jyeshtha, from 11:36 am (prev day) to 11:01 am, then Mula, from 11:01 am to 11:16 am (next day) on Sunday, 22 October 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Sunday) runs from 04:01 pm to 05:26 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 Sunday, 22 October 2028, sunrise is at 06:04 am and sunset at 05:26 pm; moonrise is at 10:25 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:22 am to 12:08 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 08:55 am–10:20 am; Amrit 10:20 am–11:45 am; Shubh 01:10 pm–02:35 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.
