Today is Shukla Chaturdasi of Bhadrapada, holding until 11:09 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 Shatabhisha, the hundred healers — solitary, unconventional, curative until 11:23 AM. Rahu kalam is 10:48 AM–12:18 PM.
The day runs from 06:16 AM to 06:20 PM, 12h 4m of daylight, the yoga is Shoola and the karana Gara, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:54 AM and 12:43 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.
