Panchang
Today is Ashtami of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Uttara Phalguni Nakshatra. It is observed as Kalashtami. Rahu Kaal: 8:48 am–10:09 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:29 pm to 1:13 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Monday, 20 December 2027, the tithi in Dwarka is Ashtami, from 03:34 am to 01:53 am (next day), followed by Navami, from 01:53 am (next day) to 12:35 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Uttara Phalguni, from 02:07 am to 01:05 am (next day), then Hasta, from 01:05 am (next day) to 12:25 am (next day) on Monday, 20 December 2027 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Monday) runs from 08:48 am to 10:09 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 Monday, 20 December 2027, sunrise is at 07:27 am and sunset at 06:14 pm; moonrise is at 12:17 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:29 pm to 01:13 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 07:27 am–08:48 am; Shubh 10:09 am–11:30 am; Labh 03:33 pm–04:54 pm; Amrit 04:54 pm–06:14 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.
