Today is Shukla Navami of Jyeshtha, holding until 04:42 PM. It is a rikta — "empty" — tithi, one of the three each fortnight that are traditionally set aside for weddings, housewarmings and new ventures.
That does not make it a bad day. Rikta tithis suit exactly what their name suggests: clearing, concluding, settling debts, medical treatment, and finishing what is already under way. The moon is in Hasta, skill of hand — craft, dexterity and things well made until 11:55 AM. Rahu kalam is 03:52 PM–05:34 PM.
The day runs from 05:42 AM to 07:16 PM, 13h 34m of daylight, the yoga is Variyana and the karana Kaulava, the moon stands in Mithuna. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:02 PM and 12:56 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.
