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
- Sankashti Chaturthi tomorrow Sun, 1 Sep
- Krishna Shashti in 3 days Tue, 3 Sep
- Kalashtami in 5 days Thu, 5 Sep
The rest of today

1:55 PM – 3:30 PM
6:02 AM – 7:37 AM
8:34 AM – 10:14 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.
