Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Hasta Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:24 pm–2:02 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 19 August 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 03:15 am (prev day) to 05:54 am, followed by Panchami, from 05:54 am to 08:27 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Hasta, from 10:11 am (prev day) to 01:22 pm, then Chitra, from 01:22 pm to 04:23 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 19 August 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:24 pm to 02:02 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 Wednesday, 19 August 2015, sunrise is at 05:52 am and sunset at 06:57 pm; moonrise is at 09:42 am. 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 05:52 am–07:30 am; Amrit 07:30 am–09:08 am; Shubh 10:46 am–12:24 pm; Labh 05:19 pm–06:57 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.
