Daily Panchang

Shukla Paksha

Saturday, Shukla Paksha. The tithi is Saptami till night, then Ashtami begins. Saptami is a smooth day for routine work and travel. The Moon is in Rohini nakshatra till evening, then Mrigashira. Amrit Siddhi Yoga is formed on this day, an auspicious time for new work. Abhijit Muhurta (12:05 – 12:53) is good for new work; avoid Rahu Kaal (09:29 – 10:59). The Moon is in Vrishabha rashi and the Sun in Meena.

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.
