Panchang
Today is Chaturdashi of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Holika Dahan. Rahu Kaal: 2:00 pm–3:30 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:05 pm to 12:53 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 17 March 2022, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturdashi, from 01:40 pm (prev day) to 01:30 pm, followed by Purnima, from 01:30 pm to 12:48 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 12:20 am to 12:33 am (next day), then Uttara Phalguni, from 12:33 am (next day) to 12:17 am (next day) on Thursday, 17 March 2022 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 02:00 pm to 03:30 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, 17 March 2022, sunrise is at 06:28 am and sunset at 06:30 pm; moonrise is at 05:40 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:05 pm to 12:53 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:28 am–07:59 am; Labh 12:29 pm–02:00 pm; Amrit 02:00 pm–03:30 pm; Shubh 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.
