Today is Shashthi of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Mula Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 7:47 am–9:14 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:43 am to 12:29 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 15 October 2018, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 06:28 am (prev day) to 08:05 am, followed by Saptami, from 08:05 am to 10:17 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mula, from 01:14 pm (prev day) to 03:33 pm, then Purva Ashadha, from 03:33 pm to 06:22 pm (next day) on Monday, 15 October 2018 in Delhi. The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 07:47 am to 09:14 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, 15 October 2018, sunrise is at 06:21 am and sunset at 05:52 pm; moonrise is at 11:59 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:43 am to 12:29 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 06:21 am–07:47 am; Shubh 09:14 am–10:40 am; Labh 02:59 pm–04:25 pm; Amrit 04:25 pm–05:52 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.
