Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Krishna Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Sarva Pitru Amavasya and Darsha Amavasya. Rahu Kaal: 3:15 pm–4:46 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:49 am to 12:37 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 23 September 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturdashi, from 07:30 am (prev day) to 09:45 am, followed by Amavasya, from 09:45 am to 11:44 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Bhadrapada (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 12:19 pm (prev day) to 03:03 pm, then Uttara Phalguni, from 03:03 pm to 05:31 pm (next day) on Tuesday, 23 September 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:15 pm to 04:46 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, 23 September 2014, sunrise is at 06:09 am and sunset at 06:17 pm; moonrise is at 05:11 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:49 am to 12:37 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:42 am–12:13 pm; Amrit 12:13 pm–01:44 pm; Shubh 03:15 pm–04:46 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.
