Wednesday, Shukla Shashthi of Vaishakha, with the tithi running until 10:53 PM. No festival or major vratam falls today — an ordinary day, which is most of them.
Shukla Shashthi is a nanda — joyful tithi: Celebration and beginnings. The moon is in Ardra, the storm that clears the air — grief that turns into clarity, holding until 10:14 PM, and the yoga is Atiganda.
The day runs from 06:01 AM to 06:51 PM. Abhijit muhurta — the window centred on solar noon and held open to nearly anything — falls between 12:00 PM and 12:51 PM. Rahu kalam runs 12:26 PM to 02:02 PM.
The moon stands in Mesha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:00 PM and 12:51 PM. All of these are computed for India (IST); change the city in the header and they move with it.
