About this day

Vijayadashami (Dasara) falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Shukla Dasami, running until 11:44 AM, in the month of Ashwina. The moon stands in Dhanishta, rhythm and wealth — the beat that others move to, which holds until 05:18 PM.

The day begins at 05:54 AM and closes at 05:21 PM. Rahu kalam runs 11:38 AM to 01:04 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 11:15 AM and 12:01 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.

The yoga is Ganda and the karana Gara, the moon stands in Tula. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:15 AM and 12:01 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.
