Panchang
Today is Dwadashi of Krishna Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Dhanishta Nakshatra. It is observed as Krishna Pradosh Vrat. Rahu Kaal: 9:26 am–10:57 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:04 pm to 12:52 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 21 March 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Dwadashi, from 06:00 am (prev day) to 07:56 am, followed by Trayodashi, from 07:56 am to 10:09 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Dhanishta, from 05:05 pm (prev day) to 07:39 pm, then Shatabhisha, from 07:39 pm to 10:26 pm (next day) on Saturday, 21 March 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:26 am to 10:57 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 Saturday, 21 March 2020, sunrise is at 06:23 am and sunset at 06:33 pm; moonrise is at 04:52 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:04 pm to 12:52 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:54 am–09:26 am; Labh 01:59 pm–03:30 pm; Amrit 03:30 pm–05:02 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.
