Panchang
Today is Pratipada of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Chitra Nakshatra. It is observed as Ghatasthapana, Navratri Begins and Ishti. Rahu Kaal: 4:07 pm–5:35 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:21 am to 12:08 pm. The answers below are calculated for Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Sunday, 11 October 2026, the tithi in Varanasi is Pratipada, from 09:20 pm (prev day) to 09:32 pm, followed by Dwitiya, from 09:32 pm to 10:14 pm (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Chitra, from 09:42 pm (prev day) to 10:32 pm, then Swati, from 10:32 pm to 11:52 pm (next day) on Sunday, 11 October 2026 in Varanasi. The Moon is in Virgo and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Varanasi today (Sunday) runs from 04:07 pm to 05:35 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 Sunday, 11 October 2026, sunrise is at 05:54 am and sunset at 05:35 pm; moonrise is at 06:19 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Varanasi today is from 11:21 am to 12:08 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 08:49 am–10:17 am; Amrit 10:17 am–11:44 am; Shubh 01:12 pm–02:39 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.
