Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:09 pm–1:38 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 4 October 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturdashi, from 02:50 am to 01:48 am (next day), followed by Purnima, from 01:48 am (next day) to 12:10 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Bhadrapada, from 09:51 pm (prev day) to 09:39 pm, then Uttara Bhadrapada, from 09:39 pm to 08:49 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 4 October 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:09 pm to 01:38 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 Wednesday, 4 October 2017, sunrise is at 06:15 am and sunset at 06:03 pm; moonrise is at 05:23 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
There is no Abhijit Muhurat today (Wednesday). Traditionally it is not observed on Wednesdays.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 06:15 am–07:44 am; Amrit 07:44 am–09:12 am; Shubh 10:41 am–12:09 pm; Labh 04:35 pm–06:03 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.
