About this day

Gupta Navaratri (Ashadha) falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Shukla Padyami, running until 11:54 AM, in the month of Ashadha. The moon stands in Pushya, the most auspicious of the twenty-seven — nourishment itself, which holds until 09:47 PM.

The day begins at 05:50 AM and closes at 07:16 PM. Rahu kalam runs 12:33 PM to 02:13 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:06 PM and 01:00 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.

The yoga is Harshana and the karana Bava, the moon stands in Mithuna. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:06 PM and 01:00 PM. All of these are computed for India (IST); change the city in the header and they move with it.
