About this day
Pitru Paksha (Mahalaya Paksha) is running — day 7 of 14. The tithi at sunrise is Krishna Ashtami, holding until 05:24 PM, in the month of Bhadrapada; the moon stands in Ardra, the storm that clears the air — grief that turns into clarity, which holds until 01:00 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 07:07 AM and closes at 06:49 PM. Rahu kalam runs 10:03 AM to 11:31 AM, and abhijit muhurta falls between 12:35 PM and 01:22 PM.
The yoga is Parigha and the karana Balava, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:35 PM and 01:22 PM. All of these are computed for San Francisco; 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.
