Panchang
Today is Navami of Shukla Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Ashwini Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 2:21 pm–3:42 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:38 pm to 1:21 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 6 January 2028, the tithi in Dwarka is Navami, from 07:51 pm (prev day) to 08:35 pm, followed by Dashami, from 08:35 pm to 08:31 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashwini, from 02:31 am to 03:35 am (next day), then Bharani, from 03:35 am (next day) to 03:51 am (next day) on Thursday, 6 January 2028 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Aries and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Thursday) runs from 02:21 pm to 03:42 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 Thursday, 6 January 2028, sunrise is at 07:34 am and sunset at 06:24 pm; moonrise is at 01:08 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:38 pm to 01:21 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 07:34 am–08:55 am; Labh 12:59 pm–02:21 pm; Amrit 02:21 pm–03:42 pm; Shubh 05:03 pm–06:24 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.
