Panchang
Today is Pratipada of Krishna Paksha in Pausha month, with the Moon in Mrigashira Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 11:29 am–12:50 pm. 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 Friday, 17 December 2032, the tithi in Dwarka is Pratipada, from 02:19 am to 02:17 am (next day), followed by Dwitiya, from 02:17 am (next day) to 02:46 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Margashirsha (Amanta) / Pausha (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Mrigashira, from 12:09 pm (prev day) to 12:26 pm, then Ardra, from 12:26 pm to 01:11 pm (next day) on Friday, 17 December 2032 in Dwarka. The Moon is in Gemini and the Sun in Sagittarius.
Rahu Kaal in Dwarka today (Friday) runs from 11:29 am to 12:50 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 Friday, 17 December 2032, sunrise is at 07:26 am and sunset at 06:13 pm; moonrise is at 06:54 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: Labh 08:47 am–10:08 am; Amrit 10:08 am–11:29 am; Shubh 12:50 pm–02:11 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.
