Panchang
Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Mrigashira Nakshatra. It is observed as Margashirsha Purnima. Rahu Kaal: 1:32 pm–2:50 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:53 am to 12:35 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 12 December 2019, the tithi in Delhi is Purnima, from 10:59 am (prev day) to 10:42 am, followed by Pratipada, from 10:42 am to 09:57 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mrigashira, from 06:21 am to 06:18 am (next day), then Ardra, from 06:18 am (next day) to 05:49 am (next day) on Thursday, 12 December 2019 in Delhi. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:32 pm to 02:50 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, 12 December 2019, sunrise is at 07:03 am and sunset at 05:25 pm; moonrise is at 05:40 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:53 am to 12:35 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:03 am–08:21 am; Labh 12:14 pm–01:32 pm; Amrit 01:32 pm–02:50 pm; Shubh 04:07 pm–05:25 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.
