About this day

Today is Shukla Trayodasi — Pradosham, kept for Shiva. Unlike most observances it is tied to an hour rather than a day: the pradosha kala is the roughly hour-and-a-half spanning sunset, which falls at 07:02 PM here.

The tithi runs until 04:06 PM, and the moon is in Chitra, the made thing that shines — design, form and brilliance until 11:43 AM. Abhijit muhurta is 11:57 AM to 12:50 PM. Because the observance is anchored to sunset, its timing moves with your city — the sunset above is the one to use.

The day runs from 05:45 AM to 07:02 PM, 13h 18m of daylight, the yoga is Vyatipata and the karana Taitila, 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.
