Panchang
Today is Panchami of Shukla Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Punarvasu Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:17 pm–1:58 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 11 May 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Panchami, from 12:30 pm (prev day) to 10:53 am, followed by Shashthi, from 10:53 am to 10:06 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Punarvasu, from 10:52 pm (prev day) to 10:22 pm, then Pushya, from 10:22 pm to 10:44 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 11 May 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:17 pm to 01:58 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, 11 May 2016, sunrise is at 05:32 am and sunset at 07:02 pm; moonrise is at 09:49 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 05:32 am–07:13 am; Amrit 07:13 am–08:55 am; Shubh 10:36 am–12:17 pm; Labh 05:21 pm–07:02 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.
