Panchang
Today is Ashtami of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Durgashtami and Simha Sankranti. Rahu Kaal: 10:27 am–12:05 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:38 am to 12:31 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Friday, 17 August 2029, the tithi in Ayodhya is Ashtami, from 01:28 pm (prev day) to 11:27 am, followed by Navami, from 11:27 am to 09:47 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 07:35 am (prev day) to 06:16 am, then Anuradha, from 06:16 am to 05:17 am (next day) on Friday, 17 August 2029 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Friday) runs from 10:27 am to 12:05 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, 17 August 2029, sunrise is at 05:33 am and sunset at 06:36 pm; moonrise is at 01:03 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:38 am to 12:31 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 12:05 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.
