About this day

Today is Krishna Ashtami of Ashwina, running until 10:02 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 Pushya, the most auspicious of the twenty-seven — nourishment itself, until 07:08 PM. Abhijit muhurta falls 11:48 AM–12:34 PM.

The day runs from 06:27 AM to 05:55 PM, 11h 28m of daylight, the yoga is Sadhya and the karana Kaulava, the moon stands in Tula. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:48 AM and 12:34 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.
