Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Krishna Paksha in Magha month, with the Moon in Anuradha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 9:52 am–11:12 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:10 pm to 12:52 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 17 January 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Dwadashi, from 04:40 am to 03:08 am (next day), followed by Trayodashi, from 03:08 am (next day) to 12:51 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Magha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Anuradha, from 08:48 am (prev day) to 08:36 am, then Jyeshtha, from 08:36 am to 07:34 am (next day) on Saturday, 17 January 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Capricorn.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:52 am to 11:12 am. 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 Saturday, 17 January 2015, sunrise is at 07:14 am and sunset at 05:47 pm; moonrise is at 03:44 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:10 pm to 12:52 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 08:33 am–09:52 am; Labh 01:50 pm–03:09 pm; Amrit 03:09 pm–04:28 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.
