Today is Dashami of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Punarvasu Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 9:30 am–11:00 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:06 pm to 12:54 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 16 March 2019, the tithi in Delhi is Dashami, from 01:45 am to 11:33 pm, followed by Ekadashi, from 11:33 pm to 08:51 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Punarvasu, from 03:44 am to 02:12 am (next day), then Pushya, from 02:12 am (next day) to 12:11 am (next day) on Saturday, 16 March 2019 in Delhi. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:30 am to 11:00 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 Saturday, 16 March 2019, sunrise is at 06:30 am and sunset at 06:30 pm; moonrise is at 01:22 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:06 pm to 12:54 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 08:00 am–09:30 am; Labh 02:00 pm–03:30 pm; Amrit 03:30 pm–05:00 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.
