Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Krishna Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Ardra Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 4:21 pm–5:47 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:43 am to 12:28 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 20 October 2019, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 07:44 am (prev day) to 07:30 am, followed by Saptami, from 07:30 am to 06:45 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ardra, from 05:40 pm (prev day) to 05:52 pm, then Punarvasu, from 05:52 pm to 05:31 pm (next day) on Sunday, 20 October 2019 in Delhi. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 04:21 pm to 05:47 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 Sunday, 20 October 2019, sunrise is at 06:24 am and sunset at 05:47 pm; moonrise is at 10:46 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:43 am to 12:28 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 09:15 am–10:40 am; Amrit 10:40 am–12:05 pm; Shubh 01:31 pm–02:56 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.
