Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Dhanishta Nakshatra. It is observed as Raksha Bandhan. Rahu Kaal: 1:40 pm–3:17 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:37 am to 12:29 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 23 August 2029, the tithi in Ayodhya is Chaturdashi, from 06:40 am (prev day) to 06:48 am, followed by Purnima, from 06:48 am to 07:21 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Dhanishta, from 05:39 am to 06:51 am (next day), then Shatabhisha, from 06:51 am (next day) to 08:26 am (next day) on Thursday, 23 August 2029 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Capricorn and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Thursday) runs from 01:40 pm to 03:17 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 Thursday, 23 August 2029, sunrise is at 05:36 am and sunset at 06:30 pm; moonrise is at 05:53 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:37 am to 12:29 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 05:36 am–07:13 am; Labh 12:03 pm–01:40 pm; Amrit 01:40 pm–03:17 pm; Shubh 04:53 pm–06:30 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.
