Daily Panchang

Shukla Paksha

Tuesday, Shukla Paksha. The tithi is Shashthi till night, then Saptami begins. Shashthi is a day of strength, good for finishing hard tasks. The Moon is in Dhanishta nakshatra till morning, then Shatabhisha. Abhijit Muhurta (11:55 – 12:36) is good for new work; avoid Rahu Kaal (14:51 – 16:08). The Moon is in Kumbha rashi and the Sun in Vrishchika.

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 for picking 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 — pick an hour whose ruler suits the task.
