Today is Shukla Ekadasi — the eleventh tithi of the shukla fortnight of Vaishakha, and the fortnightly fasting day kept for Vishnu. The tithi runs until 05:16 PM.
The fast begins at sunrise, 05:45 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 Uttara Phalguni, the bond that holds — friendship, contract and kept promises until 11:36 AM, and the yoga is Vajra.
The day runs from 05:45 AM to 07:01 PM, 13h 16m of daylight, the moon stands in Vrishabha. Rahu kalam runs 05:22 PM to 07:01 PM, yamagandam 12:23 PM to 02:03 PM, 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 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.
