Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Chitra Nakshatra. It is observed as Sankashti Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 8:09 am–9:37 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:09 pm to 12:56 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 5 March 2018, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 01:08 am to 12:40 am (next day), followed by Panchami, from 12:40 am (next day) to 12:58 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Chitra, from 08:16 pm (prev day) to 08:17 pm, then Swati, from 08:17 pm to 09:03 pm (next day) on Monday, 5 March 2018 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Aquarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 08:09 am to 09:37 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, 5 March 2018, sunrise is at 06:42 am and sunset at 06:23 pm; moonrise is at 09:48 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:09 pm to 12:56 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 06:42 am–08:09 am; Shubh 09:37 am–11:05 am; Labh 03:28 pm–04:55 pm; Amrit 04:55 pm–06:23 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.
