Panchang
Today is Tritiya of Krishna Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Bharani Nakshatra. It is observed as Karwa Chauth and Sankashti Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 4:31 pm–5:59 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:45 am to 12:31 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 8 October 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Tritiya, from 07:37 pm (prev day) to 04:58 pm, followed by Chaturthi, from 04:58 pm to 02:16 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Bharani, from 05:50 pm (prev day) to 03:58 pm, then Krittika, from 03:58 pm to 02:01 pm (next day) on Sunday, 8 October 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 04:31 pm to 05:59 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, 8 October 2017, sunrise is at 06:17 am and sunset at 05:59 pm; moonrise is at 08:10 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:45 am to 12:31 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:13 am–10:40 am; Amrit 10:40 am–12:08 pm; Shubh 01:36 pm–03:03 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.
