Panchang
Today is Trayodashi of Shukla Paksha in Margashirsha month, with the Moon in Krittika Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 3:34 pm–4:55 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:31 pm to 1:14 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 22 December 2026, the tithi in Dwarka is Trayodashi, from 05:37 pm (prev day) to 02:24 pm, followed by Chaturdashi, from 02:24 pm to 10:48 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Margashirsha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Krittika, from 01:09 pm (prev day) to 10:45 am, then Rohini, from 10:45 am to 07:56 am (next day) on Tuesday, 22 December 2026 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Taurus and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Tuesday) runs from 03:34 pm to 04:55 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 Dwarka on Tuesday, 22 December 2026, sunrise is at 07:29 am and sunset at 06:16 pm; moonrise is at 04:24 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:31 pm to 01:14 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 11:31 am–12:52 pm; Amrit 12:52 pm–02:13 pm; Shubh 03:34 pm–04:55 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.
