Panchang
Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra. It is observed as Buddha Purnima and Vaishakha Purnima. Rahu Kaal: 8:53 am–10:35 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:50 am to 12:45 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 18 May 2019, the tithi in Delhi is Purnima, from 04:11 am to 02:41 am (next day), followed by Pratipada, from 02:41 am (next day) to 01:43 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 03:07 am to 02:21 am (next day), then Anuradha, from 02:21 am (next day) to 02:06 am (next day) on Saturday, 18 May 2019 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Taurus.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 08:53 am to 10:35 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, 18 May 2019, sunrise is at 05:28 am and sunset at 07:06 pm; moonrise is at 06:37 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:50 am to 12:45 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:11 am–08:53 am; Labh 01:59 pm–03:42 pm; Amrit 03:42 pm–05:24 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.
