Panchang
Today is Ekadashi of Shukla Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Krittika Nakshatra. It is observed as Pausha Putrada Ekadashi. Rahu Kaal: 1:50 pm–3:09 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:10 pm to 12:52 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 17 January 2019, the tithi in Delhi is Ekadashi, from 12:04 am to 10:35 pm, followed by Dwadashi, from 10:35 pm to 08:23 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Krittika, from 02:11 pm (prev day) to 01:40 pm, then Rohini, from 01:40 pm to 12:24 pm (next day) on Thursday, 17 January 2019 in Delhi. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Capricorn.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:50 pm to 03:09 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 Thursday, 17 January 2019, sunrise is at 07:14 am and sunset at 05:47 pm; moonrise is at 02:10 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:10 pm to 12:52 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:14 am–08:33 am; Labh 12:31 pm–01:50 pm; Amrit 01:50 pm–03:09 pm; Shubh 04:28 pm–05:47 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.
