Today is Krishna Ashtami of Bhadrapada, running until 03:08 AM. Ashtami is the half-moon tithi, when the pull of the sun and the moon is at its most divided, and the tradition places its most intense observances at exactly that point — Kalashtami in the waning.
It is a jaya tithi, held to favour contest, resolve and anything requiring nerve, and it is traditionally avoided for weddings. The nakshatra is Rohini, growth and abundance — the most fertile ground in the zodiac, until 08:42 AM. Abhijit muhurta falls 11:58 AM–12:47 PM.
The day runs from 06:13 AM to 06:31 PM, 12h 18m of daylight, the yoga is Vajra and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:58 AM and 12:47 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.
