Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Hasta Nakshatra. It is observed as Sankashti Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 11:08 am–12:34 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:11 pm to 12:57 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Friday, 26 February 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 06:05 am to 08:43 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Magha (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Hasta, from 12:23 pm (prev day) to 03:21 pm, then Chitra, from 03:21 pm to 06:27 pm (next day) on Friday, 26 February 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Friday) runs from 11:08 am to 12:34 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 Friday, 26 February 2016, sunrise is at 06:49 am and sunset at 06:18 pm; moonrise is at 09:29 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:11 pm to 12:57 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 08:16 am–09:42 am; Amrit 09:42 am–11:08 am; Shubh 12:34 pm–02:00 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.
