Panchang
Today is Tritiya of Krishna Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Chitra Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:30 pm–2:00 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 15 March 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Tritiya, from 09:50 pm (prev day) to 11:18 pm, followed by Chaturthi, from 11:18 pm to 01:12 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Chitra, from 08:12 pm (prev day) to 10:10 pm, then Swati, from 10:10 pm to 12:34 am (next day) on Wednesday, 15 March 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:30 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, 15 March 2017, sunrise is at 06:30 am and sunset at 06:29 pm; moonrise is at 09:02 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 06:30 am–08:00 am; Amrit 08:00 am–09:30 am; Shubh 11:00 am–12:30 pm; Labh 04:59 pm–06:29 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.
