Panchang
Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra. It is observed as Buddha Purnima and Vaishakha Purnima. Rahu Kaal: 7:11 am–8:53 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:50 am to 12:44 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Monday, 16 May 2022, the tithi in Delhi is Purnima, from 12:46 pm (prev day) to 09:44 am, followed by Pratipada, from 09:44 am to 06:26 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 03:34 pm (prev day) to 01:17 pm, then Anuradha, from 01:17 pm to 10:46 am (next day) on Monday, 16 May 2022 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Taurus.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Monday) runs from 07:11 am to 08:53 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 Monday, 16 May 2022, sunrise is at 05:29 am and sunset at 07:05 pm; moonrise is at 07:29 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:50 am to 12:44 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 05:29 am–07:11 am; Shubh 08:53 am–10:35 am; Labh 03:41 pm–05:23 pm; Amrit 05:23 pm–07:05 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.
