Panchang
Today is Panchami of Krishna Paksha in Magha month, with the Moon in Purva Phalguni Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 5:09 pm–6:31 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:41 pm to 1:25 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 16 January 2028, the tithi in Dwarka is Panchami, from 08:11 pm (prev day) to 05:27 pm, followed by Shashthi, from 05:27 pm to 03:13 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Pausha (Amanta) / Magha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni, from 11:25 am (prev day) to 09:14 am, then Uttara Phalguni, from 09:14 am to 07:30 am (next day) on Sunday, 16 January 2028 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Capricorn.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Sunday) runs from 05:09 pm to 06:31 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 Sunday, 16 January 2028, sunrise is at 07:35 am and sunset at 06:31 pm; moonrise is at 11:08 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:41 pm to 01:25 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:19 am–11:41 am; Amrit 11:41 am–01:03 pm; Shubh 02:25 pm–03:47 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.
