Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Krishna Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Jyeshtha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 10:49 am–12:23 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:58 am to 12:49 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Friday, 6 April 2018, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 07:01 pm (prev day) to 09:04 pm, followed by Saptami, from 09:04 pm to 11:30 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Jyeshtha, from 09:18 am (prev day) to 11:42 am, then Mula, from 11:42 am to 02:32 pm (next day) on Friday, 6 April 2018 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Friday) runs from 10:49 am to 12:23 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 Friday, 6 April 2018, sunrise is at 06:05 am and sunset at 06:41 pm; moonrise is at 12:08 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:58 am to 12:49 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 07:40 am–09:14 am; Amrit 09:14 am–10:49 am; Shubh 12:23 pm–01:58 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.
