Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Ashwini Nakshatra. It is observed as Vinayaka Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 12:29 pm–2:00 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 17 March 2021, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 09:00 pm (prev day) to 11:29 pm, followed by Panchami, from 11:29 pm to 02:10 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashwini, from 07:30 am to 07:30 am, then Bharani, from 07:30 am to 10:34 am (next day) on Wednesday, 17 March 2021 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:29 pm to 02:00 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 Wednesday, 17 March 2021, sunrise is at 06:28 am and sunset at 06:30 pm; moonrise is at 08:43 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
There is no Abhijit Muhurat today (Wednesday). Traditionally it is not observed on Wednesdays.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 06:28 am–07:58 am; Amrit 07:58 am–09:29 am; Shubh 10:59 am–12:29 pm; Labh 05:00 pm–06:30 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.
