The moon is full today — Pournami of Vaishakha, the fifteenth tithi of the waxing fortnight, running until 10:56 PM. The moon stands directly opposite the sun and is fully lit; it rises around sunset, 06:54 PM, and stays up through the night.
Purnima is a purna tithi, one of completion, and the day is traditionally given to vratam, to charity and to the Satyanarayana puja. The nakshatra is Swati, independence — the reed that bends because it is not tied down, until 04:36 AM. Rahu kalam is 10:47 AM to 12:24 PM.
The day runs from 05:54 AM to 06:54 PM, 13h 1m of daylight, the yoga is Siddhi and the karana Vishti, the moon stands in Mesha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:58 AM and 12:50 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.
