About this day
Pitru Paksha (Mahalaya Paksha) is running — day 8 of 14. The tithi at sunrise is Krishna Navami, holding until 03:56 AM, in the month of Bhadrapada; the moon stands in Punarvasu, return and renewal — the light that comes back after the storm, which holds until 12:15 AM. The tithi to reckon shraddha by is not this one but the one prevailing in aparahna, the afternoon: today that is Krishna Navami. A parent's or grandparent's rite is performed on the day their tithi falls in aparahna, and Mahalaya Amavasya at the close of the fortnight gathers everyone whose tithi is not known.
The day begins at 06:06 AM and closes at 06:06 PM. Rahu kalam runs 04:36 PM to 06:06 PM, and abhijit muhurta falls between 11:42 AM and 12:30 PM.
The yoga is Parigha and the karana Taitila, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:42 AM and 12:30 PM. All of these are computed for Madurai; 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.
