About this day
Today is Krishna Ashtami of Chaitra, running until 03:04 PM. 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 Shravana, listening — knowledge received rather than seized, until 08:31 PM. Abhijit muhurta falls 11:58 AM–12:50 PM.
The day runs from 05:55 AM to 06:53 PM, 12h 58m of daylight, the yoga is Shubha and the karana Kaulava, the moon stands in Mesha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:58 AM and 12:50 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.
