Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Anuradha Nakshatra. It is observed as Sankashti Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 12:23 pm–1:58 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 8 April 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 10:21 pm (prev day) to 11:02 pm, followed by Panchami, from 11:02 pm to 11:12 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Anuradha, from 05:42 am to 06:51 am (next day), then Jyeshtha, from 06:51 am (next day) to 07:28 am (next day) on Wednesday, 8 April 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:23 pm to 01:58 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, 8 April 2015, sunrise is at 06:03 am and sunset at 06:42 pm; moonrise is at 10:13 pm. 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 06:03 am–07:38 am; Amrit 07:38 am–09:13 am; Shubh 10:48 am–12:23 pm; Labh 05:08 pm–06:42 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.
