Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:59 am to 12:40 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 23 December 2019, the tithi in Delhi is Dwadashi, from 03:23 pm (prev day) to 01:42 pm, followed by Trayodashi, from 01:42 pm to 12:19 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 06:37 pm (prev day) to 05:39 pm, then Anuradha, from 05:39 pm to 04:59 pm (next day) on Monday, 23 December 2019 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 08:27 am to 09:45 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 Monday, 23 December 2019, sunrise is at 07:10 am and sunset at 05:29 pm; moonrise is at 04:00 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:59 am to 12:40 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 07:10 am–08:27 am; Shubh 09:45 am–11:02 am; Labh 02:54 pm–04:12 pm; Amrit 04:12 pm–05:29 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.
