Panchang
Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Swati Nakshatra. It is observed as Buddha Purnima and Vaishakha Purnima. Rahu Kaal: 12:17 pm–1:59 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 14 May 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Purnima, from 02:15 am to 12:46 am (next day), followed by Pratipada, from 12:46 am (next day) to 10:48 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Swati, from 07:55 am (prev day) to 07:37 am, then Vishakha, from 07:37 am to 06:45 am (next day) on Wednesday, 14 May 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:17 pm to 01:59 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 Wednesday, 14 May 2014, sunrise is at 05:31 am and sunset at 07:04 pm; moonrise is at 06:42 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
There is no Abhijit Muhurat today (Wednesday). Traditionally it is not observed on Wednesdays.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 05:31 am–07:12 am; Amrit 07:12 am–08:54 am; Shubh 10:36 am–12:17 pm; Labh 05:22 pm–07:04 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.
