Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Krishna Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Punarvasu Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:05 pm–1:26 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 12 November 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 03:25 am to 05:14 am (next day), followed by Saptami, from 05:14 am (next day) to 07:30 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Kartika (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Punarvasu, from 04:59 pm (prev day) to 07:04 pm, then Pushya, from 07:04 pm to 09:40 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 12 November 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:05 pm to 01:26 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, 12 November 2014, sunrise is at 06:40 am and sunset at 05:29 pm; moonrise is at 10:20 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 06:40 am–08:01 am; Amrit 08:01 am–09:23 am; Shubh 10:44 am–12:05 pm; Labh 04:08 pm–05:29 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.
