Panchang
Today is Pratipada of Krishna Paksha in Jyeshtha month, with the Moon in Anuradha Nakshatra. It is observed as Narada Jayanti. Rahu Kaal: 2:29 pm–4:07 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 12:24 pm to 1:16 pm. The answers below are calculated for Dwarka, Gujarat and refresh every day.
On Thursday, 8 May 2031, the tithi in Dwarka is Pratipada, from 09:10 am (prev day) to 06:20 am, followed by Dwitiya, from 06:20 am to 03:18 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Vaishakha (Amanta) / Jyeshtha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Anuradha, from 03:38 am to 01:25 am (next day), then Jyeshtha, from 01:25 am (next day) to 11:08 pm (next day) on Thursday, 8 May 2031 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Scorpio and the Sun in Aries.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Thursday) runs from 02:29 pm to 04:07 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, 8 May 2031, sunrise is at 06:17 am and sunset at 07:23 pm; moonrise is at 08:51 pm. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Dwarka today is from 12:24 pm to 01:16 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Shubh 06:17 am–07:56 am; Labh 12:50 pm–02:29 pm; Amrit 02:29 pm–04:07 pm; Shubh 05:45 pm–07:23 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.
