Reflective day

Today is Friday, in the Krishna Paksha. The tithi is Ashtami till morning, then Navami begins. Ashtami is an intense day. New ventures are traditionally avoided. The Moon is in Anuradha nakshatra till afternoon, then Jyeshtha. Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga is on today, a rare good time for any new start. Start new work in Abhijit Muhurta, 12:12 to 12:57, and avoid it in Rahu Kaal, 11:09 to 12:34. The Moon is in Vrishchika rashi and the Sun in Kumbha.

Day at a glance

A North Indian timing system: 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 for picking auspicious slots for everyday work.

A short-list of the six most important windows — three auspicious (Brahma, Abhijit, Amrit) and three to avoid (Rahu, Yamaganda, Gulika). 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 — pick an hour whose ruler suits the task.
