Today's Tithi

Shukla Chaturthi / Panchami — Shukla Paksha

Today opens with Shukla Chaturthi up to 11:29 AM, moving into Shukla Panchami (often associated with Rishi Panchami observances depending on regional calendars). Chaturdhi encourages focused intent and obstacle removal, while Panchami favors learning, health, and artistic endeavors.

Tithi Significance

Panchami is traditionally considered an auspicious Tithi for initiating educational pursuits, artistic projects, medical treatments, and constructive ceremonies.

Today's Nakshatra

Swati Nakshatra

Governed by Vayu (the wind deity) and symbolized by a young plant shoot blowing in the wind or a coral, Swati represents independence, flexibility, trade, communication, and balancing diverse perspectives.

  • Nakshatra: Swati

  • Ends at: 5:11 PM (followed by Vishakha)

Today's Yoga

Indra Yoga

Indra Yoga represents leadership, protection, and influential authority. Activities initiated under this yoga tend to benefit from strong administrative backing, executive oversight, and successful outcomes.

  • Yoga ends: 3:39 PM (followed by Vaidhriti Yoga)

Today's Karana

Bava Karana

Bava is a movable Karana favorable for productive daily commerce, trade, and initiating constructive routine tasks. Active up to 11:29 AM, followed by Balava.

  • Karana ends: 11:29 AM (followed by Balava Karana)

Today's Vrat and Festivals

Rishi Panchami / Skanda Shashti Observances

Today marks devotional observances associated with Rishi Panchami, where traditional fasting and prayers are offered to the Sapta Rishis (seven sages) for purification, blessings, and spiritual renewal.

Rahu Kaal Today

  • Rahu Kaal: 3:25 PM – 4:58 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.

Yamaganda Kaal Today

  • Yamaganda: 9:16 AM – 10:49 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.

Gulika Kaal Today

  • Gulika Kaal: 12:22 PM – 1:53 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: 4:34 AM – 5:21 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 Shubh Muhurat

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

11:51 AM – 12:41 PM

Brahma Muhurat

4:34 AM – 5:21 AM

Labh / Amrit Choghadiya Window

10:49 AM – 1:53 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: 3:25 PM – 4:58 PM

  • Yamaganda: 9:16 AM – 10:49 AM

  • Gulika Kaal: 12:22 PM – 1:53 PM

  • Dur Muhurat: 8:38 AM – 9:29 AM & 11:11 PM – 11:58 PM

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

Moon Rashi Today

Moon in Libra (Tula)

The Moon's placement in Libra brings a harmonious focus on balance, relationships, diplomatic cooperation, aesthetic appreciation, and fair negotiations.

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.
