About this day

Today is Shukla Trayodasi — Pradosham, kept for Shiva. Unlike most observances it is tied to an hour rather than a day: the pradosha kala is the roughly hour-and-a-half spanning sunset, which falls at 07:05 PM here.

The tithi runs until 02:30 PM, and the moon is in Purva Ashadha, the invincible — conviction that will not be argued down until 02:02 PM. Abhijit muhurta is 12:06 PM to 12:59 PM. Because the observance is anchored to sunset, its timing moves with your city — the sunset above is the one to use.

The day runs from 06:00 AM to 07:05 PM, 13h 5m of daylight, the yoga is Vishkambha and the karana Taitila, the moon stands in Karka. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:06 PM and 12:59 PM. All of these are computed for India (IST); change the city in the header and they move with it.
