Today is Krishna Ashtami of Ashadha, running until 10:15 AM. 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 Bharani, bearing and restraint — the discipline that carries a thing to term, until 05:48 AM. Abhijit muhurta falls 12:07 PM–01:00 PM.
The day runs from 05:55 AM to 07:12 PM, 13h 17m of daylight, the yoga is Shoola and the karana Kaulava, the moon stands in Karka. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:07 PM and 01:00 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.
