Today is Shukla Navami of Bhadrapada, holding until 02:45 AM. It is a rikta — "empty" — tithi, one of the three each fortnight that are traditionally set aside for weddings, housewarmings and new ventures.
That does not make it a bad day. Rikta tithis suit exactly what their name suggests: clearing, concluding, settling debts, medical treatment, and finishing what is already under way. The moon is in Jyeshtha, the eldest — seniority, protection, and its burden until 07:56 PM. Rahu kalam is 07:43 AM–09:18 AM.
The day runs from 06:09 AM to 06:44 PM, 12h 35m of daylight, the yoga is Vishkambha and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:02 PM and 12:52 PM. All of these are computed for India (IST); change the city in the header and they move with it.
Timings are computed astronomically for the selected city and cross-referenced against the traditional panchangams in common use. Regional practice can differ by a day — please confirm important dates with the panchangam your family follows.
