Today is Chaturthi of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Vinayaka Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 2:05 pm–3:44 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:59 am to 12:52 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 12 August 2021, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 04:54 pm (prev day) to 03:25 pm, followed by Panchami, from 03:25 pm to 01:43 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Uttara Phalguni, from 09:31 am (prev day) to 08:52 am, then Hasta, from 08:52 am to 07:59 am (next day) on Thursday, 12 August 2021 in Delhi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Cancer.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 02:05 pm to 03:44 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, 12 August 2021, sunrise is at 05:48 am and sunset at 07:03 pm; moonrise is at 09:16 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:59 am to 12:52 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 05:48 am–07:27 am; Labh 12:26 pm–02:05 pm; Amrit 02:05 pm–03:44 pm; Shubh 05:24 pm–07:03 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.
