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
- Saphala Ekadashi in 2 days Mon, 14 Dec
- Pradosh Vrat in 4 days Wed, 16 Dec
- Amavasya in 6 days Fri, 18 Dec

7:08 AM – 8:24 AM
9:10 AM – 10:32 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.
