About this day
Pitru Paksha (Mahalaya Paksha) is running — day 7 of 14. The tithi at sunrise is Krishna Ashtami, holding until 03:24 AM, in the month of Bhadrapada; the moon stands in Ardra, the storm that clears the air — grief that turns into clarity, which holds until 11:00 PM. 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 05:46 AM and closes at 05:38 PM. Rahu kalam runs 08:44 AM to 10:13 AM, and abhijit muhurta falls between 11:19 AM and 12:06 PM.
The yoga is Variyana and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:19 AM and 12:06 PM. All of these are computed for Riyadh; 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.
