About this day

Today is Krishna Trayodasi — Pradosham, kept for Shiva. Unlike most observances it is tied to an hour rather than a day: the pradosha kala is the roughly hour-and-a-half spanning sunset, which falls at 07:18 PM here.

The tithi runs until 03:03 AM, and the moon is in Pushya, the most auspicious of the twenty-seven — nourishment itself until 07:10 AM. Abhijit muhurta is 12:30 PM to 01:21 PM. Because the observance is anchored to sunset, its timing moves with your city — the sunset above is the one to use.

The day runs from 06:32 AM to 07:18 PM, 12h 46m of daylight, the yoga is Parigha and the karana Gara, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:30 PM and 01:21 PM. All of these are computed for Edison, NJ; change the city in the header and they move with it.
