Shukla Paksha

Thursday, Shukla Paksha. The tithi is Dashami till evening, then Kamada Ekadashi begins. Dashami is a stable day, auspicious for most work. The Moon is in Ashlesha nakshatra till morning, then Magha. Abhijit Muhurta (11:54 to 12:46) is good for new work; avoid Rahu Kaal (13:57 to 15:34). The Moon is in Karka rashi and the Sun in Mesha.

Day at a glance

A timing system used mainly in Gujarat, Rajasthan and North India: eight day windows and eight night windows, each rated good, neutral, or bad. A quick way to pick (or avoid) a slot for an everyday task.

A South Indian tradition that splits the day and night into eight Gowri windows each, used to pick auspicious slots for everyday work.

A short-list of the seven most important windows: three auspicious (Brahma, Abhijit, Amrit) and four to avoid (Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, Varjyam). Some days may show fewer if a window isn't computed.

Each day and night splits into twelve planetary hours, each ruled by a planet. The ruling planet sets the hour's tone, so pick an hour whose ruler suits the task.
