Shravana Purnima (Raksha Bandhan) falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Krishna Padyami, running until 11:29 PM, in the month of Shravana. The moon stands in Shatabhisha, the hundred healers — solitary, unconventional, curative, which holds until 04:44 PM.
The day begins at 06:12 AM and closes at 07:30 PM. Rahu kalam runs 11:12 AM to 12:51 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:25 PM and 01:18 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.
The yoga is Sukarma and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:25 PM and 01:18 PM. All of these are computed for Chicago; 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.
