About this day

Today is Shukla Ekadasi — the eleventh tithi of the shukla fortnight of Chaitra, and the fortnightly fasting day kept for Vishnu. The tithi runs until 09:30 AM.

The fast begins at sunrise, 06:05 AM, and is broken tomorrow morning inside the parana window: after sunrise and before dwadashi ends. Grains and pulses are set aside for the whole tithi. The moon is in Magha, the throne — inherited authority and the weight of lineage until 07:09 AM, and the yoga is Vriddhi.

The day runs from 06:05 AM to 06:48 PM, 12h 43m of daylight, the moon stands in Mesha. Rahu kalam runs 09:16 AM to 10:51 AM, yamagandam 02:02 PM to 03:38 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window held open to nearly anything — 12:01 PM to 12:52 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.
