Today is Shukla Navami of Margashira, holding until 11:17 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 02:23 AM. Rahu kalam is 09:33 AM–10:54 AM.
The day runs from 06:50 AM to 05:40 PM, 10h 50m of daylight, the yoga is Harshana and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Vrischika. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:53 AM and 12:37 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.
