Panchang
Today is Purnima of Shukla Paksha in Shravana month, with the Moon in Dhanishta Nakshatra. It is observed as Raksha Bandhan, Shravana Purnima and Simha Sankranti. Rahu Kaal: 4:11 pm–5:47 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:32 pm to 1:23 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 17 August 2027, the tithi in Dwarka is Purnima, from 10:29 am (prev day) to 12:59 pm, followed by Pratipada, from 12:59 pm to 03:16 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Shravana (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Dhanishta, from 11:34 pm (prev day) to 02:32 am (next day), then Shatabhisha, from 02:32 am (next day) to 05:15 am (next day) on Tuesday, 17 August 2027 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Capricorn and the Sun in Cancer.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Tuesday) runs from 04:11 pm to 05:47 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, 17 August 2027, sunrise is at 06:31 am and sunset at 07:24 pm; moonrise is at 07:26 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:32 pm to 01:23 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 11:21 am–12:58 pm; Amrit 12:58 pm–02:34 pm; Shubh 04:11 pm–05:47 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.
