Today is Ashtami of Shukla Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Dhanishta Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Durgashtami. Rahu Kaal: 1:26 pm–2:46 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:44 am to 12:27 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 19 November 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Ashtami, from 12:40 am to 11:09 pm, followed by Navami, from 11:09 pm to 09:13 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Kartika (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Dhanishta, from 07:54 pm (prev day) to 07:08 pm, then Shatabhisha, from 07:08 pm to 05:58 pm (next day) on Thursday, 19 November 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Capricorn and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:26 pm to 02:46 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, 19 November 2015, sunrise is at 06:46 am and sunset at 05:26 pm; moonrise is at 12:44 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:44 am to 12:27 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:46 am–08:06 am; Labh 12:06 pm–01:26 pm; Amrit 01:26 pm–02:46 pm; Shubh 04:06 pm–05:26 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.
