Panchang
Today is Ashtami of Krishna Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Jyeshtha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:33 pm–2:00 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 2 March 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Ashtami, from 03:52 pm (prev day) to 05:20 pm, followed by Navami, from 05:20 pm to 06:05 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Magha (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Jyeshtha, from 02:37 am to 04:20 am (next day), then Mula, from 04:20 am (next day) to 05:18 am (next day) on Wednesday, 2 March 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:33 pm to 02:00 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 March 2016, sunrise is at 06:44 am and sunset at 06:22 pm; moonrise is at 12:55 am. 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 06:44 am–08:11 am; Amrit 08:11 am–09:39 am; Shubh 11:06 am–12:33 pm; Labh 04:54 pm–06:22 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.
