Gupta Navaratri (Magha) falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Shukla Panchami, running until 01:48 AM, in the month of Magha. The moon stands in Purva Bhadrapada, the fire of transformation — asceticism with an edge, which holds until 02:33 PM.
The day begins at 07:10 AM and closes at 06:08 PM. Rahu kalam runs 11:16 AM to 12:39 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:17 PM and 01:01 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.
The yoga is Parigha and the karana Bava, the moon stands in Makara. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:17 PM and 01:01 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.
