Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Purva Ashadha Nakshatra. It is observed as Vinayaka Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 7:45 am–9:05 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:25 am to 12:08 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Monday, 20 November 2028, the tithi in Ayodhya is Chaturthi, from 01:29 pm (prev day) to 01:08 pm, followed by Panchami, from 01:08 pm to 01:35 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Ashadha, from 08:49 pm (prev day) to 09:19 pm, then Uttara Ashadha, from 09:19 pm to 10:36 pm (next day) on Monday, 20 November 2028 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Monday) runs from 07:45 am to 09:05 am. 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 Monday, 20 November 2028, sunrise is at 06:24 am and sunset at 05:09 pm; moonrise is at 09:55 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:25 am to 12:08 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 06:24 am–07:45 am; Shubh 09:05 am–10:26 am; Labh 02:27 pm–03:48 pm; Amrit 03:48 pm–05:09 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.
