Panchang
Today is Ekadashi of Krishna Paksha in Vaishakha month, with the Moon in Shatabhisha Nakshatra. It is observed as Varuthini Ekadashi. Rahu Kaal: 2:28 pm–4:04 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:27 pm to 1:18 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 20 April 2028, the tithi in Dwarka is Ekadashi, from 04:15 pm (prev day) to 06:48 pm, followed by Dwadashi, from 06:48 pm to 09:04 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Chaitra (Amanta) / Vaishakha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Shatabhisha, from 06:19 pm (prev day) to 09:22 pm, then Purva Bhadrapada, from 09:22 pm to 12:08 am (next day) on Thursday, 20 April 2028 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Aquarius and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Thursday) runs from 02:28 pm to 04:04 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, 20 April 2028, sunrise is at 06:29 am and sunset at 07:16 pm; moonrise is at 03:35 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:27 pm to 01:18 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:29 am–08:05 am; Labh 12:53 pm–02:28 pm; Amrit 02:28 pm–04:04 pm; Shubh 05:40 pm–07:16 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.
