Today is Saptami of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Magha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 9:37 am–10:55 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:52 am to 12:34 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 9 December 2017, the tithi in Delhi is Saptami, from 02:52 am to 01:41 am (next day), followed by Ashtami, from 01:41 am (next day) to 01:12 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Magha, from 06:27 pm (prev day) to 05:40 pm, then Purva Phalguni, from 05:40 pm to 05:34 pm (next day) on Saturday, 9 December 2017 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:37 am to 10:55 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, 9 December 2017, sunrise is at 07:01 am and sunset at 05:24 pm; moonrise is at 11:38 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:52 am to 12:34 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 08:19 am–09:37 am; Labh 01:31 pm–02:49 pm; Amrit 02:49 pm–04:07 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.
