Panchang
Today is Chaturthi of Krishna Paksha in Chaitra month, with the Moon in Swati Nakshatra. It is observed as Sankashti Chaturthi. Rahu Kaal: 1:59 pm–3:30 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:05 pm to 12:53 pm. The answers below are calculated for Delhi, Delhi and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 17 March 2044, the tithi in Delhi is Chaturthi, from 01:29 am to 02:45 am (next day), followed by Panchami, from 02:45 am (next day) to 04:33 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Chaitra (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Swati, from 10:09 pm (prev day) to 11:55 pm, then Vishakha, from 11:55 pm to 02:10 am (next day) on Thursday, 17 March 2044 in Delhi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Delhi today (Thursday) runs from 01:59 pm to 03:30 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 Thursday, 17 March 2044, sunrise is at 06:27 am and sunset at 06:31 pm; moonrise is at 10:02 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Delhi today is from 12:05 pm to 12:53 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:27 am–07:58 am; Labh 12:29 pm–01:59 pm; Amrit 01:59 pm–03:30 pm; Shubh 05:00 pm–06:31 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.
