About this day

Today is Krishna Ashtami of Pushya, running until 05:01 AM. Ashtami is the half-moon tithi, when the pull of the sun and the moon is at its most divided, and the tradition places its most intense observances at exactly that point — Kalashtami in the waning.

It is a jaya tithi, held to favour contest, resolve and anything requiring nerve, and it is traditionally avoided for weddings. The nakshatra is Swati, independence — the reed that bends because it is not tied down, until 01:55 AM. Abhijit muhurta falls 12:18 PM–01:02 PM.

The day runs from 07:08 AM to 06:12 PM, 11h 4m of daylight, the yoga is Shoola and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Makara. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:18 PM and 01:02 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.
