Panchang
Today is Trayodashi of Krishna Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Dhanteras and Krishna Pradosh Vrat. Rahu Kaal: 2:55 pm–4:20 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:42 am to 12:28 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 21 October 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Trayodashi, from 11:22 pm (prev day) to 01:13 am (next day), followed by Chaturdashi, from 01:13 am (next day) to 02:35 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Uttara Phalguni, from 10:18 pm (prev day) to 12:41 am (next day), then Hasta, from 12:41 am (next day) to 02:36 am (next day) on Tuesday, 21 October 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 02:55 pm to 04:20 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, 21 October 2014, sunrise is at 06:25 am and sunset at 05:46 pm; moonrise is at 03:55 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:42 am to 12:28 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:40 am–12:05 pm; Amrit 12:05 pm–01:30 pm; Shubh 02:55 pm–04:20 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.
