Panchang
Today is Dwitiya of Krishna Paksha in Jyeshtha month, with the Moon in Anuradha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:18 pm–1:58 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 6 May 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Dwitiya, from 09:54 am (prev day) to 10:07 am, followed by Tritiya, from 10:07 am to 09:52 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Jyeshtha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Anuradha, from 11:50 am (prev day) to 12:40 pm, then Jyeshtha, from 12:40 pm to 01:03 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 6 May 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:18 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, 6 May 2015, sunrise is at 05:36 am and sunset at 06:59 pm; moonrise is at 09:03 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 05:36 am–07:17 am; Amrit 07:17 am–08:57 am; Shubh 10:37 am–12:18 pm; Labh 05:18 pm–06:59 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.
