Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Krishna Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Shravana Nakshatra. It is observed as Darsha Amavasya. Rahu Kaal: 12:35 pm–1:59 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 18 February 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturdashi, from 12:37 pm (prev day) to 09:03 am, followed by Amavasya, from 09:03 am to 05:17 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Magha (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shravana, from 12:15 pm (prev day) to 09:27 am, then Dhanishta, from 09:27 am to 06:26 am (next day) on Wednesday, 18 February 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Capricorn and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:35 pm to 01:59 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 Wednesday, 18 February 2015, sunrise is at 06:57 am and sunset at 06:13 pm; moonrise is at 06:03 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
There is no Abhijit Muhurat today (Wednesday). Traditionally it is not observed on Wednesdays.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 06:57 am–08:21 am; Amrit 08:21 am–09:46 am; Shubh 11:10 am–12:35 pm; Labh 04:48 pm–06:13 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.
