Panchang
Today is Amavasya of Krishna Paksha in Magha month, with the Moon in Uttara Ashadha Nakshatra. It is observed as Mauni Amavasya, Magha Amavasya and Darsha Amavasya. Rahu Kaal: 3:11 pm–4:30 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:10 pm to 12:53 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 20 January 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Amavasya, from 10:00 pm (prev day) to 06:44 pm, followed by Pratipada, from 06:44 pm to 03:15 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Magha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Uttara Ashadha, from 03:36 am to 12:59 am (next day), then Shravana, from 12:59 am (next day) to 10:12 pm (next day) on Tuesday, 20 January 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Sun in Capricorn.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:11 pm to 04:30 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, 20 January 2015, sunrise is at 07:13 am and sunset at 05:50 pm; moonrise is at 06:37 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:10 pm to 12:53 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 11:12 am–12:32 pm; Amrit 12:32 pm–01:51 pm; Shubh 03:11 pm–04:30 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.
