Today is Ashtami of Shukla Paksha in Ashadha month, with the Moon in Chitra Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Durgashtami. Rahu Kaal: 3:54 pm–5:38 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:59 am to 12:54 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 12 July 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Ashtami, from 05:12 pm (prev day) to 07:34 pm, followed by Navami, from 07:34 pm to 10:00 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashadha (Amanta) / Ashadha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Chitra, from 12:54 am to 03:53 am (next day), then Swati, from 03:53 am (next day) to 06:51 am (next day) on Tuesday, 12 July 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Gemini.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:54 pm to 05:38 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 Tuesday, 12 July 2016, sunrise is at 05:31 am and sunset at 07:21 pm; moonrise is at 12:43 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:59 am to 12:54 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:42 am–12:26 pm; Amrit 12:26 pm–02:10 pm; Shubh 03:54 pm–05:38 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.
