About this day

Pitru Paksha (Mahalaya Paksha) is running — day 12 of 14. The tithi at sunrise is Krishna Dwadasi, holding until 06:49 AM, in the month of Bhadrapada; the moon stands in Purva Phalguni, rest, pleasure and creative ease — the reward before the work, which holds until 04:51 AM. The tithi to reckon shraddha by is not this one but the one prevailing in aparahna, the afternoon: today that is Krishna Trayodasi. A parent's or grandparent's rite is performed on the day their tithi falls in aparahna, and Mahalaya Amavasya at the close of the fortnight gathers everyone whose tithi is not known.

The day begins at 06:47 AM and closes at 07:31 PM. Rahu kalam runs 02:44 PM to 04:20 PM, and abhijit muhurta falls between 12:43 PM and 01:34 PM.

The yoga is Shubha and the karana Taitila, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:43 PM and 01:34 PM. All of these are computed for Auckland; 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.
