About this day

Mahalaya Amavasya falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Amavasya, running until 10:52 AM, in the month of Bhadrapada. The moon stands in Hasta, skill of hand — craft, dexterity and things well made, which holds until 11:13 AM.

The day begins at 07:20 AM and closes at 06:56 PM. Rahu kalam runs 10:14 AM to 11:41 AM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:45 PM and 01:32 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.

The yoga is Indra and the karana Naga, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:45 PM and 01:32 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. Printed and regional panchangams can differ, and practice can differ by a day — please confirm important dates with the panchangam your family follows.
