Panchang
Today is Dashami of Krishna Paksha in Jyeshtha month, with the Moon in Purva Bhadrapada Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 5:24 pm–7:06 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 Sunday, 17 May 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Dashami, from 10:24 am (prev day) to 12:43 pm, followed by Ekadashi, from 12:43 pm to 03:09 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Jyeshtha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Bhadrapada, from 11:05 am (prev day) to 01:58 pm, then Uttara Bhadrapada, from 01:58 pm to 04:57 pm (next day) on Sunday, 17 May 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Taurus.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Sunday) runs from 05:24 pm to 07:06 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 Sunday, 17 May 2020, sunrise is at 05:28 am and sunset at 07:06 pm; moonrise is at 02:36 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 08:53 am–10:35 am; Amrit 10:35 am–12:17 pm; Shubh 01:59 pm–03:42 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.
