Today's Tithi

Shukla Tritiya / Chaturthi — Shukla Paksha

Today opens with Shukla Tritiya up to 9:35 AM, moving into Shukla Chaturdhi. Tritiya is favored for creative projects, travel, and festive preparations, while Chaturdhi (often associated with Vinayaka Chaturthi observances) is dedicated to Lord Ganesha for overcoming obstacles and securing focus.

Tithi Significance

Chaturdhi is widely cherished for focused prayers, obstacle removal, and embarking on new professional or intellectual undertakings with Ganesha's blessings.

Today's Nakshatra

Chitra Nakshatra

Governed by Tvashtar (the celestial architect) and symbolized by a bright jewel or pearl, Chitra represents design, architectural beauty, craftsmanship, aesthetic presentation, and meticulous attention to detail.

  • Nakshatra: Chitra

  • Ends at: 3:45 PM (followed by Swati)

Today's Yoga

Brahma Yoga

Brahma Yoga translates to creative power, divine knowledge, and inner realization. Activities initiated under this yoga tend to benefit from clear guidance, constructive learning, and steady progression.

  • Yoga ends: 3:49 PM (followed by Indra Yoga)

Today's Karana

Vanija Karana

Vanija is a movable Karana favorable for trade, commerce, and profitable daily business transactions. Active up to 9:35 AM, followed by Vishti (Bhadra).

  • Karana ends: 9:35 AM (followed by Vishti Karana)

Rahu Kaal Today

  • Rahu Kaal: 7:44 AM – 9:16 AM

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.

Yamaganda Kaal Today

  • Yamaganda: 10:48 AM – 12:21 PM

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.

Gulika Kaal Today

  • Gulika Kaal: 1:53 PM – 3:25 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.

Abhijit Muhurat Today

  • Abhijit Muhurat: 11:51 AM – 12:41 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.

Brahma Muhurat Today

  • Brahma Muhurat: 4:33 AM – 5:20 AM

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

Today's Vrat and Festivals

Vinayaka Chaturthi Vrat

Today marks the auspicious observance of Vinayaka Chaturthi. Devotees observe day-long fasting and perform special evening worship of Lord Ganesha, seeking wisdom, prosperity, and the removal of hurdles.

Important timings:

  • Chaturdhi Tithi Begins: 9:35 AM onwards

Today's Shubh Muhurat

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

11:51 AM – 12:41 PM

Brahma Muhurat

4:33 AM – 5:20 AM

Labh / Amrit Choghadiya Window

7:44 AM – 10:48 AM

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: 7:44 AM – 9:16 AM

  • Yamaganda: 10:48 AM – 12:21 PM

  • Gulika Kaal: 1:53 PM – 3:25 PM

  • Vishti (Bhadra) Period: 9:35 AM onwards through evening

  • Dur Muhurat: 12:41 PM – 1:31 PM & 3:12 PM – 4:02 PM

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

Moon Rashi Today

Moon in Virgo (Kanya) transitioning to Libra (Tula)

The Moon transitions from analytical Virgo into harmonious, balanced Libra during the evening. This shift encourages diplomatic engagement, artistic balance, relationship building, and cooperative interactions.

Sun Rashi Today

Sun in Leo (Simha)

With the Sun transiting through Leo, energy levels, leadership qualities, authority, and personal presence remain exceptionally strong. It is an optimal time for administrative oversight and corporate leadership.

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.
