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 07:40 PM here.

The tithi runs until 12:03 AM, and the moon is in Ashlesha, the coiled serpent — penetrating insight, and the power to entwine until 02:45 AM. Abhijit muhurta is 12:44 PM to 01:36 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 06:39 AM to 07:40 PM, 13h 1m of daylight, the yoga is Parigha and the karana Gara, the moon stands in Simha. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:44 PM and 01:36 PM. All of these are computed for Vancouver; change the city in the header and they move with it.
