Panchang
Today is Tritiya of Shukla Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Uttara Ashadha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 10:05 am–11:26 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:26 pm to 1:09 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Saturday, 12 December 2026, the tithi in Dwarka is Tritiya, from 11:24 am (prev day) to 02:07 pm, followed by Chaturthi, from 02:07 pm to 04:48 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Uttara Ashadha, from 03:04 am to 06:12 am (next day), then Shravana, from 06:12 am (next day) to 09:11 am (next day) on Saturday, 12 December 2026 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Saturday) runs from 10:05 am to 11:26 am. 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 Dwarka on Saturday, 12 December 2026, sunrise is at 07:23 am and sunset at 06:11 pm; moonrise is at 09:58 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:26 pm to 01:09 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 08:44 am–10:05 am; Labh 02:08 pm–03:29 pm; Amrit 03:29 pm–04:50 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 Dwarka (22.24°N, 68.97°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Dwarka'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.
