Panchang
Today is Pratipada of Krishna Paksha in Jyeshtha month, with the Moon in Anuradha Nakshatra. It is observed as Narada Jayanti. Rahu Kaal: 3:41 pm–5:24 pm. 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 Tuesday, 17 May 2022, the tithi in Delhi is Pratipada, from 09:44 am (prev day) to 06:26 am, followed by Dwitiya, from 06:26 am to 03:01 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Jyeshtha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Anuradha, from 01:17 pm (prev day) to 10:46 am, then Jyeshtha, from 10:46 am to 08:09 am (next day) on Tuesday, 17 May 2022 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 03:41 pm to 05:24 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, 17 May 2022, sunrise is at 05:29 am and sunset at 07:06 pm; moonrise is at 08:42 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: Labh 10:35 am–12:17 pm; Amrit 12:17 pm–01:59 pm; Shubh 03:41 pm–05:24 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.
