Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Jyeshtha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 2:56 pm–4:21 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:43 am to 12:28 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 20 October 2020, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 02:08 pm (prev day) to 11:19 am, followed by Panchami, from 11:19 am to 09:08 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Jyeshtha, from 03:52 am to 02:12 am (next day), then Mula, from 02:12 am (next day) to 01:12 am (next day) on Tuesday, 20 October 2020 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 02:56 pm to 04:21 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 Tuesday, 20 October 2020, sunrise is at 06:24 am and sunset at 05:46 pm; moonrise is at 10:09 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:43 am to 12:28 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:40 am–12:05 pm; Amrit 12:05 pm–01:30 pm; Shubh 02:56 pm–04:21 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.
