About this day
Pitru Paksha (Mahalaya Paksha) is running — day 13 of 14. The tithi at sunrise is Krishna Chaturdasi, holding until 03:08 AM, in the month of Bhadrapada; the moon stands in Uttara Phalguni, the bond that holds — friendship, contract and kept promises, which holds until 02:50 AM. The tithi to reckon shraddha by is not this one but the one prevailing in aparahna, the afternoon: today that is Krishna Chaturdasi. 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 06:44 AM and closes at 07:31 PM. Rahu kalam runs 11:32 AM to 01:08 PM, and abhijit muhurta falls between 12:42 PM and 01:33 PM.
The yoga is Shukla and the karana Vishti, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:42 PM and 01:33 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.
