About this day

Today is Shukla Chaturdasi of Magha, holding until 08:02 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 Ashlesha, the coiled serpent — penetrating insight, and the power to entwine until 04:08 PM. Rahu kalam is 09:48 AM–11:15 AM.

The day runs from 06:56 AM to 06:25 PM, 11h 29m of daylight, the yoga is Shobhana and the karana Vanija, the moon stands in Kumbha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:18 PM and 01:04 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.
