Panchang
Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Dhanishta Nakshatra. It is observed as Raksha Bandhan and Shravana Purnima. Rahu Kaal: 9:09 am–10:45 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:56 am to 12:47 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 29 August 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Purnima, from 03:35 am to 12:05 am (next day), followed by Pratipada, from 12:05 am (next day) to 08:27 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Dhanishta, from 06:07 pm (prev day) to 03:32 pm, then Shatabhisha, from 03:32 pm to 12:44 pm (next day) on Saturday, 29 August 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:09 am to 10:45 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 Saturday, 29 August 2015, sunrise is at 05:57 am and sunset at 06:46 pm; moonrise is at 06:24 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:56 am to 12:47 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:33 am–09:09 am; Labh 01:58 pm–03:34 pm; Amrit 03:34 pm–05:10 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.
