Panchang
Today is Navami of Krishna Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Punarvasu Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 2:08 pm–3:35 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:16 pm to 1:03 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 12 October 2028, the tithi in Dwarka is Navami, from 04:56 am to 03:24 am (next day), followed by Dashami, from 03:24 am (next day) to 01:13 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Punarvasu, from 09:29 am (prev day) to 09:11 am, then Pushya, from 09:11 am to 08:14 am (next day) on Thursday, 12 October 2028 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Thursday) runs from 02:08 pm to 03:35 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, 12 October 2028, sunrise is at 06:49 am and sunset at 06:31 pm; moonrise is at 12:32 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:16 pm to 01:03 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:49 am–08:16 am; Labh 12:40 pm–02:08 pm; Amrit 02:08 pm–03:35 pm; Shubh 05:03 pm–06:31 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.
