Today is Tritiya of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Swati Nakshatra. It is observed as Vinayaka Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 9:11 am–10:42 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:49 am to 12:37 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 23 September 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Tritiya, from 10:42 am (prev day) to 11:23 am, followed by Chaturthi, from 11:23 am to 12:40 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Swati, from 12:37 am to 02:15 am (next day), then Vishakha, from 02:15 am (next day) to 04:25 am (next day) on Saturday, 23 September 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:11 am to 10:42 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 Saturday, 23 September 2017, sunrise is at 06:09 am and sunset at 06:16 pm; moonrise is at 08:49 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:49 am to 12:37 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:40 am–09:11 am; Labh 01:44 pm–03:15 pm; Amrit 03:15 pm–04:45 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.
