Panchang
Today is Panchami of Shukla Paksha in Magha month, with the Moon in Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra. It is observed as Vasant Panchami. Rahu Kaal: 9:53 am–11:13 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:11 pm to 12:54 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 24 January 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Panchami, from 05:16 am to 02:36 am (next day), followed by Shashthi, from 02:36 am (next day) to 12:27 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Magha (Amanta) / Magha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Bhadrapada, from 04:55 pm (prev day) to 02:43 pm, then Uttara Bhadrapada, from 02:43 pm to 12:59 pm (next day) on Saturday, 24 January 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Capricorn.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:53 am to 11:13 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, 24 January 2015, sunrise is at 07:12 am and sunset at 05:53 pm; moonrise is at 09:47 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:11 pm to 12:54 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 08:32 am–09:53 am; Labh 01:53 pm–03:13 pm; Amrit 03:13 pm–04:33 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.
