Panchang
Today is Pratipada of Krishna Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Shatabhisha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 10:46 am–12:24 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:58 am to 12:50 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Friday, 19 August 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Pratipada, from 02:57 pm (prev day) to 01:00 pm, followed by Dwitiya, from 01:00 pm to 10:45 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shatabhisha, from 11:21 pm (prev day) to 10:03 pm, then Purva Bhadrapada, from 10:03 pm to 08:29 pm (next day) on Friday, 19 August 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Friday) runs from 10:46 am to 12:24 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 Friday, 19 August 2016, sunrise is at 05:52 am and sunset at 06:56 pm; moonrise is at 07:39 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:58 am to 12:50 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 07:30 am–09:08 am; Amrit 09:08 am–10:46 am; Shubh 12:24 pm–02:02 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.
