Panchang
Today is Ashtami of Shukla Paksha in Phalguna month, with the Moon in Mrigashira Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Durgashtami. Rahu Kaal: 4:03 pm–5:33 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:38 pm to 1:27 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 16 March 2027, the tithi in Dwarka is Ashtami, from 10:52 am (prev day) to 08:55 am, followed by Navami, from 08:55 am to 06:44 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Phalguna (Amanta) / Phalguna (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mrigashira, from 09:26 am (prev day) to 08:13 am, then Ardra, from 08:13 am to 06:45 am (next day) on Tuesday, 16 March 2027 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Pisces.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Tuesday) runs from 04:03 pm to 05:33 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, 16 March 2027, sunrise is at 07:02 am and sunset at 07:03 pm; moonrise is at 12:47 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:38 pm to 01:27 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 11:32 am–01:03 pm; Amrit 01:03 pm–02:33 pm; Shubh 04:03 pm–05:33 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.
