Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Vinayaka Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 3:41 pm–5:19 pm. 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 Tuesday, 18 August 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 03:15 am to 05:54 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Uttara Phalguni, from 07:02 am (prev day) to 10:11 am, then Hasta, from 10:11 am to 01:22 pm (next day) on Tuesday, 18 August 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:41 pm to 05:19 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, 18 August 2015, sunrise is at 05:51 am and sunset at 06:58 pm; moonrise is at 08:52 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: Labh 10:46 am–12:24 pm; Amrit 12:24 pm–02:03 pm; Shubh 03:41 pm–05:19 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.
