Panchang
Today is Dashami of Krishna Paksha in Magha month, with the Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 9:31 am–10:51 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:50 am to 12:32 pm. The answers below are calculated for Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 18 January 2031, the tithi in Ayodhya is Dashami, from 04:07 am to 01:58 am (next day), followed by Ekadashi, from 01:58 am (next day) to 11:19 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Magha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 01:51 am to 12:25 am (next day), then Anuradha, from 12:25 am (next day) to 10:30 pm (next day) on Saturday, 18 January 2031 in Ayodhya. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Capricorn.
Rahu Kaal in Ayodhya today (Saturday) runs from 09:31 am to 10:51 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, 18 January 2031, sunrise is at 06:50 am and sunset at 05:32 pm; moonrise is at 01:35 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Ayodhya today is from 11:50 am to 12:32 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 08:11 am–09:31 am; Labh 01:31 pm–02:51 pm; Amrit 02:51 pm–04:12 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.
