About this day

Gupta Navaratri (Magha) falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Shukla Tadiya, running until 02:22 AM, in the month of Magha. The moon stands in Purva Bhadrapada, the fire of transformation — asceticism with an edge, which holds until 03:41 AM.

The day begins at 07:03 AM and closes at 06:19 PM. Rahu kalam runs 03:30 PM to 04:55 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:19 PM and 01:04 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.

The yoga is Shiva and the karana Taitila, the moon stands in Makara. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:19 PM and 01:04 PM. All of these are computed for India (IST); change the city in the header and they move with it.
