On Tuesday, 20 December 2039, the tithi in Delhi is Shashthi, from 06:06 am to 04:29 am (next day), followed by Saptami, from 04:29 am (next day) to 03:39 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Dhanishta, from 12:53 pm (prev day) to 11:25 am, then Shatabhisha, from 11:25 am to 10:39 am (next day) on Tuesday, 20 December 2039 in Delhi. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Tuesday) runs from 02:53 pm to 04:10 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 Tuesday, 20 December 2039, sunrise is at 07:08 am and sunset at 05:28 pm; moonrise is at 11:22 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 11:57 am to 12:39 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 11:01 am–12:18 pm; Amrit 12:18 pm–01:36 pm; Shubh 02:53 pm–04:10 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.
