About this day
Sharad Navaratri (Dasara) falls today. The tithi at sunrise is Shukla Ashtami, running until 10:24 PM, in the month of Ashwina. The moon stands in Uttara Ashadha, the final victory — the one that lasts because it was earned, which holds until 03:09 AM.
The day begins at 07:38 AM and closes at 06:16 PM. Rahu kalam runs 04:56 PM to 06:16 PM, and abhijit muhurta — the window traditionally open to almost anything — falls between 12:36 PM and 01:19 PM. Where a festival has its own prescribed hour, that rule takes precedence over the general reading.
The yoga is Sukarma and the karana Vishti, the moon stands in Tula. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 12:36 PM and 01:19 PM. All of these are computed for Vancouver; 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.
