About this day

Today is Krishna Trayodasi — Pradosham, kept for Shiva. Unlike most observances it is tied to an hour rather than a day: the pradosha kala is the roughly hour-and-a-half spanning sunset, which falls at 05:42 PM here.

The tithi runs until 05:03 PM, and the moon is in Ashlesha, the coiled serpent — penetrating insight, and the power to entwine until 07:45 PM. Abhijit muhurta is 11:29 AM to 12:16 PM. Because the observance is anchored to sunset, its timing moves with your city — the sunset above is the one to use.

The day runs from 06:03 AM to 05:42 PM, 11h 39m of daylight, the yoga is Shiva and the karana Gara, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:29 AM and 12:16 PM. All of these are computed for Sydney; change the city in the header and they move with it.
