Panchang
Today is Shashthi of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Magha Nakshatra. It is observed as Dhanu Sankranti. Rahu Kaal: 8:46 am–10:07 am. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:28 pm to 1:11 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Monday, 16 December 2030, the tithi in Dwarka is Shashthi, from 03:47 pm (prev day) to 04:58 pm, followed by Saptami, from 04:58 pm to 05:31 pm (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Magha, from 05:22 pm (prev day) to 07:01 pm, then Purva Phalguni, from 07:01 pm to 08:04 pm (next day) on Monday, 16 December 2030 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Leo and the Sun in Scorpio.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Monday) runs from 08:46 am to 10:07 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, 16 December 2030, sunrise is at 07:25 am and sunset at 06:13 pm; moonrise is at 11:46 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:28 pm to 01:11 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Amrit 07:25 am–08:46 am; Shubh 10:07 am–11:28 am; Labh 03:31 pm–04:52 pm; Amrit 04:52 pm–06:13 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.
