Wednesday, Shukla Panchami of Bhadrapada, with the tithi running until 09:02 AM. No festival or major vratam falls today — an ordinary day, which is most of them.
Shukla Panchami is a purna — full tithi: Completion and fulfilment. The moon is in Vishakha, the forked path — ambition held to a single goal, holding until 05:23 PM, and the yoga is Vaidhriti.
The day runs from 05:49 AM to 06:02 PM. Abhijit muhurta — the window centred on solar noon and held open to nearly anything — falls between 11:32 AM and 12:20 PM. Rahu kalam runs 11:56 AM to 01:27 PM.
The moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:32 AM and 12:20 PM. All of these are computed for Kakinada; 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.
