Panchang
Today is Pratipada of Shukla Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Swati Nakshatra. It is observed as Govardhan Puja. Rahu Kaal: 12:05 pm–1:30 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 22 October 2025, the tithi in Delhi is Pratipada, from 05:55 pm (prev day) to 08:17 pm, followed by Dwitiya, from 08:17 pm to 10:48 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Kartika (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Swati, from 10:58 pm (prev day) to 01:51 am (next day), then Vishakha, from 01:51 am (next day) to 04:50 am (next day) on Wednesday, 22 October 2025 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:05 pm to 01:30 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, 22 October 2025, sunrise is at 06:26 am and sunset at 05:44 pm; moonrise is at 07:01 am. 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 06:26 am–07:50 am; Amrit 07:50 am–09:15 am; Shubh 10:40 am–12:05 pm; Labh 04:19 pm–05:44 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.
