Today's Tithi

Krishna Chaturthi — Krishna Paksha

Today begins with Krishna Chaturthi, a focused lunar phase traditionally associated with releasing obstacles, purification, and introspective discipline. It is widely observed for personal cleansing, quiet planning, and resolving intricate challenges.

Today's Tithi will remain in effect until approximately 04:54 PM, after which Krishna Panchami begins.

Tithi Significance

Krishna Chaturthi is traditionally linked with Ganesh worship for obstacle removal. In the context of the ongoing Pitru Paksha period, the afternoon transition into Krishna Panchami introduces Panchami Shraddha, an important day for performing ancestral rites and offerings.

Today's Nakshatra

Bharani

Bharani Nakshatra is a powerful, transformative lunar mansion governed by Yama, the god of dharma and restraint. It encourages deep commitment, endurance, and tackling demanding tasks with absolute resolve.

Nakshatra: Bharani (shifting to Krittika at 10:04 AM)
Pada: Latter Padas active during morning hours
Ends at: 10:04 AM
Traditional significance: Fosters focused effort, decisive actions, discipline, and clearing away impediments.

Today's Yoga

Vajra

Vajra Yoga rules the early morning hours, bringing diamond-like strength and firmness of purpose. It transitions quickly into Siddhi Yoga, which is highly favorable for accomplishment, skill mastery, and successful completion of ventures.

Yoga ends: 07:11 AM (followed by Siddhi)

Today's Karana

Vishti

Vishti (Bhadra) Karana is active during the daytime hours up to late afternoon, after which Bava Karana takes over for the remainder of the evening and night.

Karana ends: Full Night (Bava)

Rahu Kaal Today

Rahu Kaal: 12:16 PM – 01:45 PM
Rahu Kaal is traditionally considered an unfavorable period for beginning important new activities. People who follow this tradition generally avoid starting major work during this period.

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: 07:47 AM – 09:17 AM
This timeframe is traditionally avoided for launching new ventures, long travel, or signing critical agreements.

Gulika Kaal Today

Gulika Kaal: 10:46 AM – 12:16 PM
Associated with Saturn, this period is often used for routine tasks, though major auspicious ceremonies are typically deferred to more favorable windows.

Abhijit Muhurat Today

Abhijit Muhurat: 11:46 AM – 12:35 PM
Abhijit Muhurat is traditionally regarded as an auspicious period around midday and is commonly considered suitable for beginning certain important activities.
This neutralizes many minor astrological doshas, making it a reliable slot for important undertakings when other auspicious timings are unavailable.

Brahma Muhurat Today

Brahma Muhurat: 04:37 AM – 05:25 AM
Brahma Muhurat occurs before sunrise and is traditionally considered an especially suitable time for prayer, meditation, study and spiritual practices.

5	12:16 AM – 01:46 AM	Rog (Inauspicious)
6	01:46 AM – 03:16 AM	Kaal (Inauspicious)
7	03:16 AM – 04:47 AM	Labh (Auspicious)
8	04:47 AM – 06:18 AM	Udveg (Inauspicious)

Choghadiya periods are traditionally used to select auspicious times for travel, business transactions, or starting tasks. Amrit, Shubh, Labh, and Char are considered favorable, whereas Kaal, Rog, and Udveg are generally avoided for important beginnings.

Today's Vrat and Festivals

Panchami Shraddha & Pitru Paksha Observances

Today marks the observance of Panchami Shraddha during the sacred Pitru Paksha fortnight. Families perform ancestral tarpan, charity, and prayers during the afternoon Aparahna Kala to honor departed souls and seek familial harmony.

Important timings:

Puja Muhurat: Aparahna Kala (afternoon window) is ideal for Shraddha rituals
Tithi: Krishna Panchami begins at 04:54 PM
Nakshatra: Bharani / Krittika

Other Observances:

3rd Chaturmasa Day 8 (Milk prohibition fast in specific traditions)

Today's Shubh Muhurat

The following timings are considered auspicious according to the Panchang calculations for Jaipur, Rajasthan, India:

Muhurat	Time
Abhijit Muhurat	11:46 AM – 12:35 PM
Labh Choghadiya	06:18 AM – 07:47 AM
Amrit Choghadiya	07:47 AM – 09:17 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. These timings should therefore be treated as general Panchang guidance rather than a personalized Muhurat.

Today's Ashubh Muhurat

Rahu Kaal: 12:16 PM – 01:45 PM
Yamaganda: 07:47 AM – 09:17 AM
Gulika Kaal: 10:46 AM – 12:16 PM
Dur Muhurat: 11:46 AM – 12:35 PM & 02:57 PM – 03:46 PM
Varjyam: 10:28 PM – 11:59 PM

These periods are traditionally avoided for beginning certain important activities.

Moon Rashi Today

Moon in Mesha & Vrishabha

The Moon begins the day in dynamic Aries (Mesha), shifting by afternoon into stable and grounded Taurus (Vrishabha), fostering patience, material comfort, artistic appreciation, and steady progress.

What Is Panchang?

Panchang, or Panchangam, is a traditional Hindu almanac based on five principal elements: Tithi, Vara, Nakshatra, Yoga and Karana.

The Panchang is traditionally consulted for understanding the Hindu calendar, festivals, vrat, religious observances and auspicious timings.

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