Panchang
Today is Dwitiya of Shukla Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 2:02 pm–3:39 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:58 am to 12:50 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 20 August 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Dwitiya, from 05:20 am to 02:14 am (next day), followed by Tritiya, from 02:14 am (next day) to 11:03 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Bhadrapada (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 02:07 am to 11:50 pm, then Uttara Phalguni, from 11:50 pm to 09:28 pm (next day) on Thursday, 20 August 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 02:02 pm to 03:39 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, 20 August 2020, sunrise is at 05:52 am and sunset at 06:55 pm; moonrise is at 06:54 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:58 am to 12:50 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 05:53 am–07:30 am; Labh 12:24 pm–02:02 pm; Amrit 02:02 pm–03:39 pm; Shubh 05:17 pm–06:55 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.
