Panchang
Today is Saptami of Krishna Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Magha Nakshatra. It is observed as Kalashtami and Kalabhairav Jayanti. Rahu Kaal: 12:10 pm–1:28 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 2 December 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Saptami, from 10:22 pm (prev day) to 12:05 am (next day), followed by Ashtami, from 12:05 am (next day) to 02:24 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Kartika (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Magha, from 04:01 am to 06:22 am (next day), then Purva Phalguni, from 06:22 am (next day) to 09:13 am (next day) on Wednesday, 2 December 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:10 pm to 01:28 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, 2 December 2015, sunrise is at 06:56 am and sunset at 05:24 pm; moonrise is at 11:39 pm. 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 06:56 am–08:14 am; Amrit 08:14 am–09:33 am; Shubh 10:51 am–12:10 pm; Labh 04:05 pm–05:24 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.
