About this day
Today is Amavasya, the new moon of Margashira and the last tithi of the lunar month, running until 07:15 AM. The moon shares the sun's longitude and is not visible; the sky tonight is the darkest of the month.
The day belongs to the ancestors. Tarpana and shraddha are performed on it, and it is traditionally kept quietly rather than used for new beginnings — no weddings, no housewarmings, no ventures started. The nakshatra is Jyeshtha, the eldest — seniority, protection, and its burden until 10:52 PM. Sunrise was 07:03 AM.
The day runs from 07:03 AM to 05:45 PM, 10h 43m of daylight, the yoga is Shoola and the karana Chatushpada, the moon stands in Dhanus. Rahu kalam runs 11:04 AM to 12:24 PM, yamagandam 03:05 PM to 04:25 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window held open to nearly anything — 12:03 PM to 12:45 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. Printed and regional panchangams can differ, and practice can differ by a day — please confirm important dates with the panchangam your family follows.
