Panchang
Today is Ekadashi of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Punarvasu Nakshatra. It is observed as Amalaki Ekadashi. Rahu Kaal: 12:32 pm–2:00 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 8 March 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Ekadashi, from 12:18 am to 10:50 pm, followed by Dwadashi, from 10:50 pm to 09:40 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Punarvasu, from 06:36 pm (prev day) to 05:45 pm, then Pushya, from 05:45 pm to 05:12 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 8 March 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:32 pm to 02:00 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 March 2017, sunrise is at 06:38 am and sunset at 06:25 pm; moonrise is at 02:23 pm. 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 06:38 am–08:07 am; Amrit 08:07 am–09:35 am; Shubh 11:03 am–12:32 pm; Labh 04:57 pm–06:25 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.
