Panchang
Today is Ashtami of Krishna Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Shravana Nakshatra. It is observed as Kalashtami. Rahu Kaal: 8:38 am–10:18 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:31 am to 12:24 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 5 May 2029, the tithi in Ayodhya is Ashtami, from 02:52 am to 03:55 am (next day), followed by Navami, from 03:55 am (next day) to 05:35 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shravana, from 06:30 pm (prev day) to 07:57 pm, then Dhanishta, from 07:57 pm to 10:03 pm (next day) on Saturday, 5 May 2029 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Capricorn and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Saturday) runs from 08:38 am to 10:18 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 Saturday, 5 May 2029, sunrise is at 05:19 am and sunset at 06:36 pm; moonrise is at 12:18 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:31 am to 12:24 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:59 am–08:38 am; Labh 01:37 pm–03:17 pm; Amrit 03:17 pm–04:56 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.
