Auspicious
— Abhijit Muhurta not considered on Saturday
No festival or vrat falls today for your region.
That is a real answer, not a gap — most days of the year are ordinary days,
and a calendar that always has something to sell you is not a calendar.
Coming up
- Shukla Shashti in 4 days Wed, 22 Apr
- Masik Durgashtami in 6 days Fri, 24 Apr
- Mohini Ekadashi in 9 days Mon, 27 Apr
The rest of today

6:57 AM – 8:33 AM
9:30 AM – 11:13 AM
These are periods traditionally avoided for starting something. They do not move a festival — an observance fixed by its own rule stays where the rule puts it. More →

Nothing saved yet. Saved vrats and family dates arrive with accounts in the next phase; for now the vrat calendar lists every recurring observance with its upcoming dates, and every festival page has a calendar subscription link.
