Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Shukla Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:24 pm–1:42 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 1 January 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 04:02 pm (prev day) to 06:28 pm, followed by Saptami, from 06:28 pm to 09:01 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Bhadrapada, from 01:27 am to 04:22 am (next day), then Uttara Bhadrapada, from 04:22 am (next day) to 07:19 am (next day) on Wednesday, 1 January 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:24 pm to 01:42 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, 1 January 2020, sunrise is at 07:13 am and sunset at 05:35 pm; moonrise is at 11:27 am. 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 07:13 am–08:31 am; Amrit 08:31 am–09:48 am; Shubh 11:06 am–12:24 pm; Labh 04:17 pm–05:35 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.
