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 tomorrow Sun, 22 Aug
- Masik Durgashtami in 2 days Mon, 23 Aug
- Sawan Somwar Vrat in 2 days Mon, 23 Aug
The rest of today

2:00 PM – 3:37 PM
5:57 AM – 7:34 AM
8:32 AM – 10:15 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.
