About this day
Today is Shukla Navami of Ashwina, holding until 08:23 PM. It is a rikta — "empty" — tithi, one of the three each fortnight that are traditionally set aside for weddings, housewarmings and new ventures.
That does not make it a bad day. Rikta tithis suit exactly what their name suggests: clearing, concluding, settling debts, medical treatment, and finishing what is already under way. The moon is in Shravana, listening — knowledge received rather than seized until 01:32 AM. Rahu kalam is 04:24 PM–06:03 PM.
The day runs from 06:31 AM to 07:42 PM, 13h 11m of daylight, the yoga is Dhriti and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Tula. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:39 PM and 01:32 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.
