Today is Shukla Chaturdasi of Shravana, holding until 09:11 AM. 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 Dhanishta, rhythm and wealth — the beat that others move to until 02:16 AM. Rahu kalam is 02:04 PM–03:39 PM.
The day runs from 06:07 AM to 06:49 PM, 12h 42m of daylight, the yoga is Shobhana and the karana Vanija, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:03 PM and 12:54 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.
