Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Krishna Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Ashlesha Nakshatra. It is observed as Krishna Pradosh Vrat, Dwadashi Shraddha, Kanya Sankranti · Vishwakarma Puja and Trayodashi Shraddha. Rahu Kaal: 4:51 pm–6:24 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:50 am to 12:40 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 17 September 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Dwadashi, from 04:31 pm (prev day) to 02:43 pm, followed by Trayodashi, from 02:43 pm to 01:08 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Bhadrapada (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashlesha, from 01:05 am to 12:06 am (next day), then Magha, from 12:06 am (next day) to 11:23 pm (next day) on Sunday, 17 September 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 04:51 pm to 06:24 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 Sunday, 17 September 2017, sunrise is at 06:06 am and sunset at 06:24 pm; moonrise is at 02:57 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:50 am to 12:40 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:11 am–10:43 am; Amrit 10:43 am–12:15 pm; Shubh 01:47 pm–03:19 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.
