Today is Shukla Chaturdasi of Ashwina, holding until 12:26 PM. 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 Purva Bhadrapada, the fire of transformation — asceticism with an edge until 06:16 AM. Rahu kalam is 07:49 AM–09:18 AM.
The day runs from 06:20 AM to 06:09 PM, 11h 49m of daylight, the yoga is Vriddhi and the karana Vanija, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:51 AM and 12:39 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.
