Panchang
Today is Navami of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Shravana Nakshatra. It is observed as Dussehra. Rahu Kaal: 1:30 pm–2:55 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:42 am to 12:28 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 22 October 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Navami, from 01:30 pm (prev day) to 11:59 am, followed by Dashami, from 11:59 am to 09:52 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shravana, from 02:19 pm (prev day) to 01:28 pm, then Dhanishta, from 01:28 pm to 12:02 pm (next day) on Thursday, 22 October 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Capricorn and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:30 pm to 02:55 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 Thursday, 22 October 2015, sunrise is at 06:25 am and sunset at 05:45 pm; moonrise is at 02:02 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:42 am to 12:28 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:25 am–07:50 am; Labh 12:05 pm–01:30 pm; Amrit 01:30 pm–02:55 pm; Shubh 04:20 pm–05:45 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.
