About this day

Sharad Navaratri (Dasara) falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Shukla Panchami, running until 05:57 PM, in the month of Ashwina. The moon stands in Jyeshtha, the eldest — seniority, protection, and its burden, which holds until 09:18 PM.

The day begins at 07:09 AM and closes at 06:17 PM. Rahu kalam runs 02:07 PM to 03:30 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:21 PM and 01:06 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.

The yoga is Saubhagya and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:21 PM and 01:06 PM. All of these are computed for Edison, NJ; 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.
