Daily Panchang

Shukla Paksha

Wednesday, Shukla Paksha. The tithi is Navami till afternoon, then Dashami begins. Navami is sacred to Durga, better for prayer than for new beginnings. The Moon is in Ashwini nakshatra till evening, then Bharani. Avoid new work in Rahu Kaal (12:27 – 13:46). The Moon is in Mesha rashi and the Sun in Dhanu.

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.
