Krishna Janmashtami falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Krishna Ashtami, running until 01:46 PM, in the month of Shravana. The moon stands in Rohini, growth and abundance — the most fertile ground in the zodiac, which holds until 12:35 PM.
The day begins at 07:00 AM and closes at 07:40 PM. Rahu kalam runs 11:45 AM to 01:20 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:55 PM and 01:46 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.
The yoga is Vajra and the karana Kaulava, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:55 PM and 01:46 PM. All of these are computed for Houston; 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.
