The moon is full today — Pournami of Chaitra, the fifteenth tithi of the waxing fortnight, running until 03:59 AM. The moon stands directly opposite the sun and is fully lit; it rises around sunset, 06:50 PM, and stays up through the night.
Purnima is a purna tithi, one of completion, and the day is traditionally given to vratam, to charity and to the Satyanarayana puja. The nakshatra is Chitra, the made thing that shines — design, form and brilliance, until 04:29 AM. Rahu kalam is 03:38 PM to 05:14 PM.
The day runs from 06:02 AM to 06:50 PM, 12h 47m of daylight, the yoga is Harshana and the karana Vishti, the moon stands in Mesha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:00 PM and 12:51 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 and cross-referenced against the traditional panchangams in common use. Regional practice can differ by a day — please confirm important dates with the panchangam your family follows.
