Today is Shukla Chavithi, the chaturthi tithi of Shravana, running until 04:55 PM. Chaturthi belongs to Ganesha.
It is a rikta tithi in the muhurta scheme, which is why it is set aside for weddings and journeys while remaining well suited to removing obstacles and to clearing what is finished. The moon is in Hasta, skill of hand — craft, dexterity and things well made until 03:52 AM; rahu kalam runs 05:22 PM to 06:59 PM.
The day runs from 06:03 AM to 06:59 PM, 12h 55m of daylight, the yoga is Sadhya and the karana Vishti, the moon stands in Karka. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:05 PM and 12:57 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.
