Today is Pratipada of Krishna Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Dhanishta Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 3:46 pm–5:26 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:59 am to 12:53 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 8 August 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Pratipada, from 11:41 pm (prev day) to 12:26 am (next day), followed by Dwitiya, from 12:26 am (next day) to 12:43 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Dhanishta, from 03:32 am to 04:52 am (next day), then Shatabhisha, from 04:52 am (next day) to 05:45 am (next day) on Tuesday, 8 August 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Capricorn and the Sun in Cancer.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:46 pm to 05:26 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 Tuesday, 8 August 2017, sunrise is at 05:46 am and sunset at 07:06 pm; moonrise is at 07:34 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:59 am to 12:53 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:46 am–12:26 pm; Amrit 12:26 pm–02:06 pm; Shubh 03:46 pm–05:26 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.
