Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Bharani Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 2:00 pm–3:28 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:09 pm to 12:56 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 6 March 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 04:27 am to 04:54 am (next day), followed by Saptami, from 04:54 am (next day) to 06:06 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Bharani, from 01:58 pm (prev day) to 02:33 pm, then Krittika, from 02:33 pm to 03:54 pm (next day) on Thursday, 6 March 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 02:00 pm to 03:28 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 Delhi on Thursday, 6 March 2014, sunrise is at 06:41 am and sunset at 06:24 pm; moonrise is at 09:56 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:09 pm to 12:56 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:41 am–08:09 am; Labh 12:32 pm–02:00 pm; Amrit 02:00 pm–03:28 pm; Shubh 04:56 pm–06:24 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 Delhi (28.61°N, 77.21°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Delhi'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.
