Panchang
Today is Trayodashi of Krishna Paksha in Bhadrapada month, with the Moon in Ashlesha Nakshatra. It is observed as Masik Shivaratri. Rahu Kaal: 11:55 am–1:28 pm. The answers below are calculated for Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Wednesday, 9 September 2026, the tithi in Varanasi is Trayodashi, from 02:44 pm (prev day) to 12:31 pm, followed by Chaturdashi, from 12:31 pm to 10:34 am (next day). It falls in Krishna Paksha of Shravana (Amanta) / Bhadrapada (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Ashlesha, from 04:39 pm (prev day) to 03:14 pm, then Magha, from 03:14 pm to 02:04 pm (next day) on Wednesday, 9 September 2026 in Varanasi. The Moon is in Cancer and the Sun in Leo.
Rahu Kaal in Varanasi today (Wednesday) runs from 11:55 am to 01:28 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 Varanasi on Wednesday, 9 September 2026, sunrise is at 05:41 am and sunset at 06:09 pm; moonrise is at 03:34 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
There is no Abhijit Muhurat today (Wednesday). Traditionally it is not observed on Wednesdays.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 05:41 am–07:14 am; Amrit 07:14 am–08:48 am; Shubh 10:21 am–11:55 am; Labh 04:35 pm–06:09 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 Varanasi (25.32°N, 82.97°E) from the real positions of the Sun and Moon. Tithi, nakshatra, yoga and karana are shown with their start and end times, in Varanasi'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.
