Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 4:13 pm–5:31 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:00 pm to 12:42 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 25 December 2016, the tithi in Delhi is Dwadashi, from 03:32 am to 06:07 am (next day), followed by Trayodashi, from 06:07 am (next day) to 08:31 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 12:36 am to 03:36 am (next day), then Anuradha, from 03:36 am (next day) to 06:26 am (next day) on Sunday, 25 December 2016 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 04:13 pm to 05:31 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, 25 December 2016, sunrise is at 07:11 am and sunset at 05:31 pm; moonrise is at 03:30 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:00 pm to 12:42 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:46 am–11:03 am; Amrit 11:03 am–12:21 pm; Shubh 01:38 pm–02:56 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.
