Auspicious
— Abhijit Muhurta not considered on Wednesday
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 Thu, 5 Jan
- Masik Durgashtami in 3 days Sat, 7 Jan
- Pausha Putrada Ekadashi in 6 days Tue, 10 Jan
The rest of today

8:35 AM – 9:52 AM
11:09 AM – 12:26 PM
1:27 PM – 2:49 PM
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.
