Today is Chaturdashi of Shukla Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Mrigashira Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 8:31 am–9:49 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:03 pm to 12:45 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 1 January 2018, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturdashi, from 03:29 pm (prev day) to 11:45 am, followed by Purnima, from 11:45 am to 07:54 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mrigashira, from 05:53 pm (prev day) to 02:52 pm, then Ardra, from 02:52 pm to 11:47 am (next day) on Monday, 1 January 2018 in Delhi. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 08:31 am to 09:49 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 Monday, 1 January 2018, sunrise is at 07:13 am and sunset at 05:35 pm; moonrise is at 05:01 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:03 pm to 12:45 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 07:13 am–08:31 am; Shubh 09:49 am–11:06 am; Labh 03:00 pm–04:17 pm; Amrit 04:17 pm–05:35 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.
