About this day
Gupta Navaratri (Ashadha) falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Shukla Ashtami, running until 05:19 AM, in the month of Ashadha. The moon stands in Chitra, the made thing that shines — design, form and brilliance, which holds until 08:50 PM.
The day begins at 05:53 AM and closes at 07:14 PM. Rahu kalam runs 03:54 PM to 05:34 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:07 PM and 01:00 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.
The yoga is Siddha and the karana Vishti, the moon stands in Karka. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:07 PM and 01:00 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.
