Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Uttara Bhadrapada Nakshatra. It is observed as Ashwina Purnima. Rahu Kaal: 12:08 pm–1:36 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 8 October 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Purnima, from 07:14 pm (prev day) to 04:21 pm, followed by Pratipada, from 04:21 pm to 01:49 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Uttara Bhadrapada, from 11:22 am (prev day) to 09:10 am, then Revati, from 09:10 am to 07:15 am (next day) on Wednesday, 8 October 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:08 pm to 01:36 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, 8 October 2014, sunrise is at 06:17 am and sunset at 05:59 pm; moonrise is at 05:57 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 06:17 am–07:45 am; Amrit 07:45 am–09:13 am; Shubh 10:40 am–12:08 pm; Labh 04:31 pm–05:59 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.
