Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Krishna Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Ashwini Nakshatra. It is observed as Simha Sankranti. Rahu Kaal: 12:25 pm–2:03 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 17 August 2022, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 08:18 pm (prev day) to 08:25 pm, followed by Saptami, from 08:25 pm to 09:22 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashwini, from 09:06 pm (prev day) to 09:57 pm, then Bharani, from 09:57 pm to 11:35 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 17 August 2022 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Cancer.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:25 pm to 02:03 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, 17 August 2022, sunrise is at 05:51 am and sunset at 06:59 pm; moonrise is at 10:30 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 05:51 am–07:29 am; Amrit 07:29 am–09:08 am; Shubh 10:46 am–12:25 pm; Labh 05:20 pm–06:59 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.
