About this day
Pitru Paksha (Mahalaya Paksha) is running — day 7 of 14. The tithi at sunrise is Krishna Saptami, holding until 12:32 PM, in the month of Bhadrapada; the moon stands in Mrigashira, the gentle searcher — always scenting for something better, which holds until 07:26 AM. The tithi to reckon shraddha by is not this one but the one prevailing in aparahna, the afternoon: today that is Krishna Ashtami. 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 05:53 AM and closes at 06:26 PM. Rahu kalam runs 09:01 AM to 10:36 AM, and abhijit muhurta falls between 11:44 AM and 12:34 PM.
The yoga is Variyana and the karana Bava, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:44 AM and 12:34 PM. All of these are computed for Melbourne; 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.
