Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Hasta Nakshatra. It is observed as Ganesh Chaturthi and Vinayaka Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 9:08 am–10:46 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:57 am to 12:49 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 22 August 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 11:03 pm (prev day) to 07:58 pm, followed by Panchami, from 07:58 pm to 05:05 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Bhadrapada (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Hasta, from 09:28 pm (prev day) to 07:11 pm, then Chitra, from 07:11 pm to 05:05 pm (next day) on Saturday, 22 August 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Saturday) runs from 09:08 am to 10:46 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, 22 August 2020, sunrise is at 05:54 am and sunset at 06:53 pm; moonrise is at 09:07 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:57 am to 12:49 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:31 am–09:08 am; Labh 02:01 pm–03:38 pm; Amrit 03:38 pm–05:16 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.
