About this day
Today is Amavasya, the new moon of Chaitra and the last tithi of the lunar month, running until 04:31 PM. The moon shares the sun's longitude and is not visible; the sky tonight is the darkest of the month.
The day belongs to the ancestors. Tarpana and shraddha are performed on it, and it is traditionally kept quietly rather than used for new beginnings — no weddings, no housewarmings, no ventures started. The nakshatra is Bharani, bearing and restraint — the discipline that carries a thing to term until 01:19 AM. Sunrise was 05:51 AM.
The day runs from 05:51 AM to 06:57 PM, 13h 6m of daylight, the yoga is Ayushman and the karana Naga, the moon stands in Mesha. Rahu kalam runs 02:02 PM to 03:40 PM, yamagandam 05:51 AM to 07:29 AM, and abhijit muhurta — the window held open to nearly anything — 11:57 AM to 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.
