Panchang
Today is Panchami of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Ashlesha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 1:31 pm–2:49 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:53 am to 12:34 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 11 December 2014, the tithi in Delhi is Panchami, from 09:37 pm (prev day) to 11:50 pm, followed by Shashthi, from 11:50 pm to 02:24 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashlesha, from 06:00 am to 08:47 am (next day), then Magha, from 08:47 am (next day) to 11:49 am (next day) on Thursday, 11 December 2014 in Delhi. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:31 pm to 02:49 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 Thursday, 11 December 2014, sunrise is at 07:03 am and sunset at 05:25 pm; moonrise is at 09:54 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:53 am to 12:34 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:03 am–08:20 am; Labh 12:14 pm–01:31 pm; Amrit 01:31 pm–02:49 pm; Shubh 04:07 pm–05:25 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.
