Panchang
Today is Saptami of Krishna Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Bharani Nakshatra. It is observed as Krishna Janmashtami and Kalashtami. Rahu Kaal: 2:03 pm–3:41 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:58 am to 12:51 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 18 August 2022, the tithi in Delhi is Saptami, from 08:25 pm (prev day) to 09:22 pm, followed by Ashtami, from 09:22 pm to 11:00 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Bharani, from 09:57 pm (prev day) to 11:35 pm, then Krittika, from 11:35 pm to 01:53 am (next day) on Thursday, 18 August 2022 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 02:03 pm to 03:41 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, 18 August 2022, sunrise is at 05:51 am and sunset at 06:58 pm; moonrise is at 11:04 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:58 am to 12:51 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 05:51 am–07:30 am; Labh 12:24 pm–02:03 pm; Amrit 02:03 pm–03:41 pm; Shubh 05:19 pm–06:58 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.
