Panchang
Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Holika Dahan and Phalguna Purnima. Rahu Kaal: 5:00 pm–6:30 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:06 pm to 12:54 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 16 March 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Purnima, from 09:20 pm (prev day) to 10:39 pm, followed by Pratipada, from 10:39 pm to 11:32 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 10:22 am (prev day) to 12:23 pm, then Uttara Phalguni, from 12:23 pm to 02:01 pm (next day) on Sunday, 16 March 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 05:00 pm to 06:30 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 Sunday, 16 March 2014, sunrise is at 06:29 am and sunset at 06:30 pm; moonrise is at 06:18 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:06 pm to 12:54 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:30 am–11:00 am; Amrit 11:00 am–12:30 pm; Shubh 02:00 pm–03:30 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 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.
