Panchang
Today is Tritiya of Shukla Paksha in Ashwin month, with the Moon in Vishakha Nakshatra. Rahu Kaal: 2:38 pm–4:06 pm. Abhijit Muhurat, traditionally considered auspicious, is from 11:20 am to 12:07 pm. The answers below are calculated for Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh and refresh every day.
On Tuesday, 13 October 2026, the tithi in Varanasi is Tritiya, from 10:14 pm (prev day) to 11:28 pm, followed by Chaturthi, from 11:28 pm to 01:14 am (next day). It falls in Shukla Paksha of Ashwin (Amanta) / Ashwin (Purnimanta).
The Moon is in Vishakha, from 11:52 pm (prev day) to 01:43 am (next day), then Anuradha, from 01:43 am (next day) to 04:02 am (next day) on Tuesday, 13 October 2026 in Varanasi. The Moon is in Libra and the Sun in Virgo.
Rahu Kaal in Varanasi today (Tuesday) runs from 02:38 pm to 04:06 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 Tuesday, 13 October 2026, sunrise is at 05:55 am and sunset at 05:33 pm; moonrise is at 08:14 am. The Hindu day runs from sunrise to the next sunrise.
Abhijit Muhurat in Varanasi today is from 11:20 am to 12:07 pm, around local midday. It is traditionally considered a favourable window.
Auspicious daytime choghadiya today: Labh 10:16 am–11:44 am; Amrit 11:44 am–01:11 pm; Shubh 02:38 pm–04:06 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.
