About this day

Thursday, Shukla Panchami of Jyeshtha, with the tithi running until 08:30 AM. No festival or major vratam falls today — an ordinary day, which is most of them.

Shukla Panchami is a purna — full tithi: Completion and fulfilment. The moon is in Pushya, the most auspicious of the twenty-seven — nourishment itself, holding until 02:50 AM, and the yoga is Ganda.

The day runs from 05:43 AM to 07:04 PM. Abhijit muhurta — the window centred on solar noon and held open to nearly anything — falls between 11:57 AM and 12:50 PM. Rahu kalam runs 02:04 PM to 03:44 PM.

The moon stands in Vrishabha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:57 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. Printed and regional panchangams can differ, and practice can differ by a day — please confirm important dates with the panchangam your family follows.
