Today is Shukla Ekadasi — the eleventh tithi of the shukla fortnight of Magha, and the fortnightly fasting day kept for Vishnu. The tithi runs until 01:58 PM.
The fast begins at sunrise, 07:08 AM, and is broken tomorrow morning inside the parana window: after sunrise and before dwadashi ends. Grains and pulses are set aside for the whole tithi. The moon is in Rohini, growth and abundance — the most fertile ground in the zodiac until 07:32 AM, and the yoga is Indra.
The day runs from 07:08 AM to 06:12 PM, 11h 4m of daylight, the moon stands in Makara. Rahu kalam runs 02:03 PM to 03:26 PM, yamagandam 07:08 AM to 08:31 AM, and abhijit muhurta — the window held open to nearly anything — 12:18 PM to 01:02 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.
