About this day

Today is Shukla Navami of Pushya, holding until 12:29 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 Bharani, bearing and restraint — the discipline that carries a thing to term until 10:43 PM. Rahu kalam is 04:42 PM–06:03 PM.

The day runs from 07:10 AM to 06:03 PM, 10h 53m of daylight, the yoga is Sadhya and the karana Kaulava, the moon stands in Makara. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:15 PM and 12:59 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. Printed and regional panchangams can differ, and practice can differ by a day — please confirm important dates with the panchangam your family follows.
