Today's Tithi

Krishna Paksha Panchami — Krishna Paksha

Today is Krishna Paksha Panchami, the fifth day of the waning lunar fortnight. This Tithi is often associated with knowledge, learning, and the arts. It is considered favorable for initiating studies, engaging in creative pursuits, and sometimes associated with the worship of deities related to wisdom or specific forms of the Goddess.

Today's Tithi remains in effect until approximately 11:39 PM, after which Krishna Paksha Shashthi begins.

Tithi Significance

Panchami of Krishna Paksha is generally regarded as a good day for intellectual activities and beginning new creative or educational projects.

Today's Nakshatra

Revati Nakshatra

Revati Nakshatra, symbolized by a fish swimming in the sea or a drum, represents culmination, prosperity, wealth, and moving towards the final goal. It is governed by Pushan, the nourisher and protector of flocks and herds. This constellation encourages compassion, completion, and spiritual journeys.

  • Nakshatra: Revati

  • Pada: Various padas active throughout the day and night

  • Ends at: 4:03 AM (early next morning)

Today's Yoga

Vyaghata Yoga

Vyaghata Yoga is generally considered challenging or somewhat inauspicious in Vedic astrology. It signifies sudden impacts, conflicts, or obstacles. Activities initiated during this period may face significant hurdles and require extra effort to succeed. It is generally advised to avoid starting major new ventures during this time.

  • Yoga ends: 4:59 AM (early next morning, followed by Harshana Yoga)

Today's Karana

Bava / Balava Karana

Bava is a movable Karana favorable for agricultural work, foundational tasks, auspicious ceremonies, and daily commerce. This is followed by Balava Karana, which is also generally considered auspicious.

  • Karana ends: 12:59 PM (followed by Balava Karana)

Today's Rahu Kaal

  • Rahu Kaal: 3:12 PM – 4:38 PM

Rahu Kaal is traditionally considered an unfavorable period for beginning important new activities according to Vedic astrology. People who follow this tradition generally avoid starting major work during this inauspicious time slot.

Note: Rahu Kaal varies according to the weekday and local sunrise/sunset, so the timing should always be calculated for the selected location.

Today's Yamaganda Kaal

  • Yamaganda: 9:22 AM – 10:48 AM

Traditionally ruled by Lord Yama, this window is generally avoided for signing major agreements, launching new products, or initiating important ventures where you desire long-term expansion and positive outcomes.

Today's Gulika Kaal

  • Gulika Kaal: 12:14 PM – 1:40 PM

This timeframe is traditionally associated with Saturn's subordinate force. While routine administrative actions can continue, major auspicious undertakings, travel beginnings, or high-stakes financial commitments are usually postponed.

Today's Abhijit Muhurat

  • Abhijit Muhurat: 11:45 AM – 12:31 PM

Abhijit Muhurat is traditionally regarded as an auspicious period around midday and is commonly considered suitable for beginning certain important activities, overcoming obstacles, and executing vital decisions.

Note: This timing is specific to Jaipur and nearby regions.

Today's Brahma Muhurat

  • Brahma Muhurat: 4:52 AM – 5:40 AM

Brahma Muhurat occurs before sunrise and is traditionally considered an especially suitable time for prayer, meditation, study, yoga, and spiritual practices.

Choghadiya is traditionally utilized to select favourable daytime and nighttime windows for travel, trade, business meetings, or shifting goods. Amrit, Shubh, and Labh are considered ideal for starting constructive work, whereas Rog, Kaal, and Udveg are typically avoided.

Today's Vrat and Festivals

(There are no major fasts or festivals scheduled for today according to the standard Hindu calendar, making it a suitable day for routine constructive activities.)

Today's Shubh Muhurat

The following timings are considered auspicious according to the Hindu almanac calculations for Jaipur:

Abhijit Muhurat

11:45 AM – 12:31 PM

Brahma Muhurat

4:52 AM – 5:40 AM

Labh Choghadiya Window

10:48 AM – 12:14 PM

Important: Muhurat suitability can depend on the nature of the activity and, in traditional Jyotish practice, may also depend on an individual's horoscope (Kundli). These timings should therefore be treated as general Panchang guidance rather than a personalized Muhurat.

Today's Ashubh Muhurat

  • Rahu Kaal: 3:12 PM – 4:38 PM

  • Yamaganda: 9:22 AM – 10:48 AM

  • Gulika Kaal: 12:14 PM – 1:40 PM

  • Dur Muhurat: 08:50 AM – 09:36 AM & 11:17 PM – 12:04 AM (next day)

  • Varjyam: 06:15 AM – 08:00 AM

These inauspicious time periods are traditionally avoided for beginning certain important activities or financial transactions.

What Is Panchang?

Panchang, or Panchangam, is a traditional Hindu calendar and almanac based on five principal astronomical elements: Tithi (lunar day), Vara (weekday), Nakshatra (constellation), Yoga, and Karana (half-tithi).

The Panchang is traditionally consulted for understanding festival dates, Hindu calendar details, vrat observances, religious rituals, and auspicious timings.

Because many timings are based on local sunrise, sunset, and precise planetary positions, Panchang timings can vary from one geographic location to another.
