Panchang
Today is Panchami of Shukla Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Krittika Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 3:31 pm–5:02 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:03 pm to 12:52 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 24 March 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Panchami, from 03:12 am to 01:40 am (next day), followed by Shashthi, from 01:40 am (next day) to 12:53 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Krittika, from 02:51 am to 02:01 am (next day), then Rohini, from 02:01 am (next day) to 01:56 am (next day) on Tuesday, 24 March 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:31 pm to 05:02 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 March 2015, sunrise is at 06:21 am and sunset at 06:34 pm; moonrise is at 09:14 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:03 pm to 12:52 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:56 am–12:27 pm; Amrit 12:27 pm–01:59 pm; Shubh 03:31 pm–05:02 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.
