Panchang
Today is Tritiya of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Hariyali Teej and Simha Sankranti. Rahu Kaal: 7:29 am–9:08 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:58 am to 12:51 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 17 August 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Tritiya, from 12:41 am to 03:15 am (next day), followed by Chaturthi, from 03:15 am (next day) to 05:54 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 07:02 am to 07:02 am, then Uttara Phalguni, from 07:02 am to 10:11 am (next day) on Monday, 17 August 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Cancer.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 07:29 am to 09:08 am. 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 Monday, 17 August 2015, sunrise is at 05:50 am and sunset at 06:59 pm; moonrise is at 08:01 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:58 am to 12:51 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 05:50 am–07:29 am; Shubh 09:08 am–10:46 am; Labh 03:42 pm–05:20 pm; Amrit 05:20 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.
