Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Magha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 12:15 pm–1:33 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 14 December 2022, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 09:22 pm (prev day) to 11:43 pm, followed by Saptami, from 11:43 pm to 01:40 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Magha, from 02:32 am to 05:15 am (next day), then Purva Phalguni, from 05:15 am (next day) to 07:33 am (next day) on Wednesday, 14 December 2022 in Delhi. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:15 pm to 01:33 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, 14 December 2022, sunrise is at 07:05 am and sunset at 05:26 pm; moonrise is at 10:47 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 07:05 am–08:22 am; Amrit 08:22 am–09:40 am; Shubh 10:58 am–12:15 pm; Labh 04:08 pm–05:26 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.
