Today is Krishna Navami of Bhadrapada, holding until 03:56 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 Punarvasu, return and renewal — the light that comes back after the storm until 12:15 AM. Rahu kalam is 04:43 PM–06:12 PM.
The day runs from 06:19 AM to 06:12 PM, 11h 52m of daylight, the yoga is Parigha and the karana Taitila, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:52 AM and 12:39 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.
