On Wednesday, 4 December 2019, the tithi in Delhi is Ashtami, from 11:14 pm (prev day) to 01:45 am (next day), followed by Navami, from 01:45 am (next day) to 04:16 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shatabhisha, from 02:16 pm (prev day) to 05:09 pm, then Purva Bhadrapada, from 05:09 pm to 08:07 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 4 December 2019 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:11 pm to 01:29 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 Wednesday, 4 December 2019, sunrise is at 06:57 am and sunset at 05:24 pm; moonrise is at 12:56 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
There is no Abhijit Muhurat today (Wednesday). Traditionally it is not observed on Wednesdays.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 06:58 am–08:16 am; Amrit 08:16 am–09:34 am; Shubh 10:52 am–12:11 pm; Labh 04:05 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.
