Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Shukla Paksha in Kartika month, with the Moon in Mula Nakshatra. It is observed as Chhath Puja. Rahu Kaal: 8:19 am–9:46 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:15 pm to 1:01 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Monday, 23 October 2028, the tithi in Dwarka is Shashthi, from 08:55 pm (prev day) to 08:53 pm, followed by Saptami, from 08:53 pm to 09:42 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Kartika (Amanta) / Kartika (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mula, from 11:01 am (prev day) to 11:16 am, then Purva Ashadha, from 11:16 am to 12:22 pm (next day) on Monday, 23 October 2028 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Sagittarius and the Sun in Libra.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Monday) runs from 08:19 am to 09:46 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, 23 October 2028, sunrise is at 06:53 am and sunset at 06:22 pm; moonrise is at 12:02 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:15 pm to 01:01 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 06:53 am–08:19 am; Shubh 09:46 am–11:12 am; Labh 03:30 pm–04:56 pm; Amrit 04:56 pm–06:22 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.
