Today is Krishna Navami of Shravana, holding until 08:26 PM. It is a rikta — "empty" — tithi, one of the three each fortnight that are traditionally set aside for weddings, housewarmings and new ventures.
That does not make it a bad day. Rikta tithis suit exactly what their name suggests: clearing, concluding, settling debts, medical treatment, and finishing what is already under way. The moon is in Mrigashira, the gentle searcher — always scenting for something better until 08:01 PM. Rahu kalam is 08:57 AM–10:31 AM.
The day runs from 05:50 AM to 06:21 PM, 12h 31m of daylight, the yoga is Vajra and the karana Taitila, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:40 AM and 12:30 PM. All of these are computed for Muscat; 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.
