Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Shukla Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Krittika Nakshatra. It is observed as Dattatreya Jayanti. Rahu Kaal: 10:53 am–12:11 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:50 am to 12:32 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Friday, 5 December 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturdashi, from 07:04 pm (prev day) to 06:19 pm, followed by Purnima, from 06:19 pm to 05:57 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Krittika, from 11:21 pm (prev day) to 11:18 pm, then Rohini, from 11:18 pm to 11:38 pm (next day) on Friday, 5 December 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Friday) runs from 10:53 am to 12:11 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 Friday, 5 December 2014, sunrise is at 06:58 am and sunset at 05:24 pm; moonrise is at 04:42 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:50 am to 12:32 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 08:17 am–09:35 am; Amrit 09:35 am–10:53 am; Shubh 12:11 pm–01:29 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.
