Panchang
Today is Amavasya of Krishna Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Ashlesha Nakshatra. It is observed as Bhadrapada Amavasya and Darsha Amavasya. Rahu Kaal: 7:31 am–9:08 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:58 am to 12:50 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 21 August 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Amavasya, from 02:10 am to 12:00 am (next day), followed by Pratipada, from 12:00 am (next day) to 10:16 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashlesha, from 05:22 pm (prev day) to 03:51 pm, then Magha, from 03:51 pm to 02:42 pm (next day) on Monday, 21 August 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 07:31 am to 09:08 am. 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 Monday, 21 August 2017, sunrise is at 05:53 am and sunset at 06:54 pm; moonrise is at 05:10 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:58 am to 12:50 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 05:53 am–07:31 am; Shubh 09:08 am–10:46 am; Labh 03:39 pm–05:17 pm; Amrit 05:17 pm–06:54 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.
