Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Bharani Nakshatra. It is observed as Vinayaka Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 10:52 am–12:25 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:00 pm to 12:50 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Friday, 31 March 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 11:43 pm (prev day) to 08:41 pm, followed by Panchami, from 08:41 pm to 05:50 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Bharani, from 09:23 am (prev day) to 07:05 am, then Krittika, from 07:05 am to 04:52 am (next day) on Friday, 31 March 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Friday) runs from 10:52 am to 12:25 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 Friday, 31 March 2017, sunrise is at 06:12 am and sunset at 06:38 pm; moonrise is at 08:39 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:00 pm to 12:50 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 07:45 am–09:18 am; Amrit 09:18 am–10:52 am; Shubh 12:25 pm–01:58 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.
