About this day
Today is Shukla Dwadasi, the tithi in which yesterday's Ekadashi fast is broken. The parana must fall after sunrise — 05:45 AM here — and before dwadashi ends at 04:30 PM. Breaking it outside that window is held to lose the merit of the fast.
The moon is in Hasta, skill of hand — craft, dexterity and things well made, holding until 11:30 AM. Abhijit muhurta runs 11:57 AM to 12:50 PM; rahu kalam falls between 07:25 AM and 09:04 AM.
The day runs from 05:45 AM to 07:02 PM, 13h 17m of daylight, the yoga is Siddhi and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Vrishabha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:57 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.
