About this day

Today is Krishna Navami of Ashadha, holding until 04:39 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 Krittika, the cutting flame — purification that does not flatter until 06:44 PM. Rahu kalam is 10:54 AM–12:33 PM.

The day runs from 06:00 AM to 07:05 PM, 13h 5m of daylight, the yoga is Vriddhi and the karana Gara, the moon stands in Karka. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:06 PM and 12:59 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.
