Panchang
Today is Ashtami of Krishna Paksha in Jyeshtha month, with the Moon in Dhanishta Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 10:35 am–12:17 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:50 am to 12:44 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Friday, 15 May 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Ashtami, from 06:52 am (prev day) to 08:23 am, followed by Navami, from 08:23 am to 10:24 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Jyeshtha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Dhanishta, from 06:22 am (prev day) to 08:29 am, then Shatabhisha, from 08:29 am to 11:05 am (next day) on Friday, 15 May 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Taurus.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Friday) runs from 10:35 am to 12:17 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 Friday, 15 May 2020, sunrise is at 05:30 am and sunset at 07:05 pm; moonrise is at 01:30 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:50 am to 12:44 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 07:12 am–08:53 am; Amrit 08:53 am–10:35 am; Shubh 12:17 pm–01:59 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.
