Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Jyeshtha month, with the Moon in Punarvasu Nakshatra. It is observed as Vinayaka Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 12:20 pm–2:04 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 8 June 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 12:50 am to 11:36 pm, followed by Panchami, from 11:36 pm to 11:10 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Jyeshtha (Amanta) / Jyeshtha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Punarvasu, from 08:45 am (prev day) to 07:44 am, then Pushya, from 07:44 am to 07:30 am (next day) on Wednesday, 8 June 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Taurus.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:20 pm to 02:04 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, 8 June 2016, sunrise is at 05:22 am and sunset at 07:18 pm; moonrise is at 08:32 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 05:22 am–07:07 am; Amrit 07:07 am–08:51 am; Shubh 10:35 am–12:20 pm; Labh 05:33 pm–07:18 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.
