Today is Shukla Ashtami of Bhadrapada, running until 03:29 PM. Ashtami is the half-moon tithi, when the pull of the sun and the moon is at its most divided, and the tradition places its most intense observances at exactly that point — Durgashtami in the waxing fortnight.
It is a jaya tithi, held to favour contest, resolve and anything requiring nerve, and it is traditionally avoided for weddings. The nakshatra is Mula, down to the root — investigation that does not stop at the surface, until 01:43 AM. Abhijit muhurta falls 11:41 AM–12:30 PM.
The day runs from 06:00 AM to 06:11 PM, 12h 11m of daylight, the yoga is Ayushman and the karana Bava, the moon stands in Kanya. Abhijit muhurta, the window centred on solar noon, falls between 11:41 AM and 12:30 PM. All of these are computed for Warangal; change the city in the header and they move with it.
Timings are computed astronomically for the selected city and cross-referenced against the traditional panchangams in common use. Regional practice can differ by a day — please confirm important dates with the panchangam your family follows.
