Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Krishna Paksha in Magha month, with the Moon in Purva Ashadha Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Shivaratri. Rahu Kaal: 1:52 pm–3:12 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:11 pm to 12:54 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 23 January 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturdashi, from 01:49 am to 02:18 am (next day), followed by Amavasya, from 02:18 am (next day) to 03:12 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Magha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Ashadha, from 12:19 am to 01:20 am (next day), then Uttara Ashadha, from 01:20 am (next day) to 02:45 am (next day) on Thursday, 23 January 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Sun in Capricorn.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:52 pm to 03:12 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, 23 January 2020, sunrise is at 07:13 am and sunset at 05:52 pm; moonrise is at 05:53 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:11 pm to 12:54 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:13 am–08:33 am; Labh 12:32 pm–01:52 pm; Amrit 01:52 pm–03:12 pm; Shubh 04:32 pm–05:52 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.
