Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Shukla Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Bharani Nakshatra. It is observed as Shukla Pradosh Vrat. Rahu Kaal: 4:07 pm–5:25 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:53 am to 12:35 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 11 December 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Dwadashi, from 07:45 pm (prev day) to 04:32 pm, followed by Trayodashi, from 04:32 pm to 12:59 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Bharani, from 08:29 am (prev day) to 03:33 am (next day), then Krittika, from 03:33 am (next day) to 12:38 am (next day) on Sunday, 11 December 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 04:07 pm to 05:25 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 Sunday, 11 December 2016, sunrise is at 07:03 am and sunset at 05:25 pm; moonrise is at 03:22 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:53 am to 12:35 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:39 am–10:56 am; Amrit 10:56 am–12:14 pm; Shubh 01:32 pm–02:49 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.
