Panchang
Today is Tritiya of Krishna Paksha in Jyeshtha month, with the Moon in Jyeshtha Nakshatra. It is observed as Sankashti Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 12:17 pm–2:00 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 18 May 2022, the tithi in Delhi is Tritiya, from 03:01 am to 11:37 pm, followed by Chaturthi, from 11:37 pm to 08:24 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Jyeshtha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Jyeshtha, from 10:46 am (prev day) to 08:09 am, then Mula, from 08:09 am to 05:36 am (next day) on Wednesday, 18 May 2022 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Taurus.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:17 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, 18 May 2022, sunrise is at 05:28 am and sunset at 07:06 pm; moonrise is at 09:52 pm. 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 05:28 am–07:10 am; Amrit 07:10 am–08:53 am; Shubh 10:35 am–12:17 pm; Labh 05:24 pm–07:06 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.
