Today is Ashtami of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Durgashtami. Rahu Kaal: 2:06 pm–3:47 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:59 am to 12:53 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 8 August 2019, the tithi in Delhi is Ashtami, from 11:41 am (prev day) to 10:31 am, followed by Navami, from 10:31 am to 10:01 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 09:35 pm (prev day) to 09:27 pm, then Anuradha, from 09:27 pm to 09:58 pm (next day) on Thursday, 8 August 2019 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Cancer.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 02:06 pm to 03:47 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, 8 August 2019, sunrise is at 05:46 am and sunset at 07:07 pm; moonrise is at 01:14 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:59 am to 12:53 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 05:46 am–07:26 am; Labh 12:26 pm–02:06 pm; Amrit 02:06 pm–03:47 pm; Shubh 05:27 pm–07:07 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.
