Panchang
Today is Trayodashi of Shukla Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Hasta Nakshatra. It is observed as Shukla Pradosh Vrat. Rahu Kaal: 7:13 am–8:54 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:50 am to 12:44 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 12 May 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Trayodashi, from 03:22 am to 03:09 am (next day), followed by Chaturdashi, from 03:09 am (next day) to 02:15 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Hasta, from 06:34 am (prev day) to 07:35 am, then Chitra, from 07:35 am to 07:55 am (next day) on Monday, 12 May 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 07:13 am to 08:54 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 Delhi on Monday, 12 May 2014, sunrise is at 05:32 am and sunset at 07:03 pm; moonrise is at 04:43 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:50 am to 12:44 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 05:32 am–07:13 am; Shubh 08:54 am–10:36 am; Labh 03:40 pm–05:21 pm; Amrit 05:21 pm–07:03 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.
