Today is Shashthi of Krishna Paksha in Jyeshtha month, with the Moon in Uttara Ashadha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 5:19 pm–6:59 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:51 am to 12:44 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 6 May 2018, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 01:22 pm (prev day) to 03:56 pm, followed by Saptami, from 03:56 pm to 06:28 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Jyeshtha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Uttara Ashadha, from 01:32 am to 04:39 am (next day), then Shravana, from 04:39 am (next day) to 07:37 am (next day) on Sunday, 6 May 2018 in Delhi. The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 05:19 pm to 06:59 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 Sunday, 6 May 2018, sunrise is at 05:36 am and sunset at 06:59 pm; moonrise is at 12:22 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:51 am to 12:44 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 08:57 am–10:37 am; Amrit 10:37 am–12:17 pm; Shubh 01:58 pm–03:38 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.
