Daily Panchang

Krishna Paksha

Wednesday, Krishna Paksha. The tithi is Amavasya till morning, then Pratipada begins. Amavasya is the new moon, a day for ancestors, quiet and reflection. The Moon is in Bharani nakshatra till afternoon, then Krittika. Sarvartha Siddhi Yoga is formed on this day, an auspicious time for new work. Avoid new work in Rahu Kaal (12:17 to 13:58). The Moon and the Sun are both in Mesha rashi.

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.
