Panchang
Today is Amavasya of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Jyeshtha Nakshatra. It is observed as Pausha Amavasya and Darsha Amavasya. Rahu Kaal: 12:17 pm–1:34 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 17 December 2036, the tithi in Delhi is Amavasya, from 08:34 pm (prev day) to 09:05 pm, followed by Pratipada, from 09:05 pm to 10:06 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Jyeshtha, from 04:28 pm (prev day) to 05:27 pm, then Mula, from 05:27 pm to 06:56 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 17 December 2036 in Delhi. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Wednesday) runs from 12:17 pm to 01:34 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 December 2036, sunrise is at 07:07 am and sunset at 05:27 pm; moonrise is at 06:31 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 07:07 am–08:24 am; Amrit 08:24 am–09:42 am; Shubh 10:59 am–12:17 pm; Labh 04:09 pm–05:27 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.
