Today is Shashthi of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Bharani Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 3:26 pm–4:51 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:11 pm to 12:57 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 24 February 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 01:24 pm (prev day) to 11:47 am, followed by Saptami, from 11:47 am to 10:54 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Bharani, from 06:34 pm (prev day) to 05:49 pm, then Krittika, from 05:49 pm to 05:47 pm (next day) on Tuesday, 24 February 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:26 pm to 04:51 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, 24 February 2015, sunrise is at 06:51 am and sunset at 06:17 pm; moonrise is at 10:35 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:11 pm to 12:57 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 11:08 am–12:34 pm; Amrit 12:34 pm–02:00 pm; Shubh 03:26 pm–04:51 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.
