Panchang
Today is Panchami of Krishna Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Swati Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 4:53 pm–6:20 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:10 pm to 12:57 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 28 February 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Panchami, from 08:43 am (prev day) to 11:21 am, followed by Shashthi, from 11:21 am to 01:48 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Magha (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Swati, from 06:27 pm (prev day) to 09:29 pm, then Vishakha, from 09:29 pm to 12:17 am (next day) on Sunday, 28 February 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 04:53 pm to 06:20 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 Sunday, 28 February 2016, sunrise is at 06:47 am and sunset at 06:20 pm; moonrise is at 11:11 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:10 pm to 12:57 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:40 am–11:07 am; Amrit 11:07 am–12:34 pm; Shubh 02:00 pm–03:27 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.
