About this day

Today is Shukla Trayodasi — Pradosham, kept for Shiva. Unlike most observances it is tied to an hour rather than a day: the pradosha kala is the roughly hour-and-a-half spanning sunset, which falls at 05:47 PM here.

The tithi runs until 02:26 PM, and the moon is in Krittika, the cutting flame — purification that does not flatter until 10:46 AM. Abhijit muhurta is 12:04 PM to 12:47 PM. Because the observance is anchored to sunset, its timing moves with your city — the sunset above is the one to use.

The day runs from 07:04 AM to 05:47 PM, 10h 43m of daylight, the yoga is Sadhya and the karana Taitila, the moon stands in Dhanus. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:04 PM and 12:47 PM. All of these are computed for India (IST); change the city in the header and they move with it.
