Panchang
Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Chitra Nakshatra. It is observed as Hanuman Jayanti and Chaitra Purnima. Rahu Kaal: 3:34 pm–5:10 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:55 am to 12:47 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 15 April 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Purnima, from 01:14 pm (prev day) to 01:12 pm, followed by Pratipada, from 01:12 pm to 12:41 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Chitra, from 10:42 pm (prev day) to 11:08 pm, then Swati, from 11:08 pm to 11:06 pm (next day) on Tuesday, 15 April 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:34 pm to 05:10 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 Tuesday, 15 April 2014, sunrise is at 05:55 am and sunset at 06:47 pm; moonrise is at 06:56 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:55 am to 12:47 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:45 am–12:21 pm; Amrit 12:21 pm–01:57 pm; Shubh 03:34 pm–05:10 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.
