Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Ashlesha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 2:58 pm–4:15 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:02 pm to 12:43 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 29 December 2015, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 02:43 pm (prev day) to 03:29 pm, followed by Panchami, from 03:29 pm to 04:59 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashlesha, from 11:49 am (prev day) to 01:02 pm, then Magha, from 01:02 pm to 02:58 pm (next day) on Tuesday, 29 December 2015 in Delhi. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 02:58 pm to 04:15 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 Tuesday, 29 December 2015, sunrise is at 07:12 am and sunset at 05:33 pm; moonrise is at 09:27 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:02 pm to 12:43 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 11:05 am–12:22 pm; Amrit 12:22 pm–01:40 pm; Shubh 02:58 pm–04:15 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.
