Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Krishna Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Mrigashira Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:07 pm–1:34 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 11 October 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 11:38 am (prev day) to 09:10 am, followed by Saptami, from 09:10 am to 06:56 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mrigashira, from 12:08 pm (prev day) to 10:25 am, then Ardra, from 10:25 am to 08:57 am (next day) on Wednesday, 11 October 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:07 pm to 01:34 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, 11 October 2017, sunrise is at 06:19 am and sunset at 05:56 pm; moonrise is at 10:49 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 06:19 am–07:46 am; Amrit 07:46 am–09:13 am; Shubh 10:40 am–12:07 pm; Labh 04:28 pm–05:56 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.
