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
- Masik Durgashtami tomorrow Sun, 4 Jan
- Pausha Putrada Ekadashi in 4 days Wed, 7 Jan
- Purnima in 8 days Sun, 11 Jan
The rest of today

1:42 PM – 2:59 PM
7:18 AM – 8:35 AM
9:21 AM – 10:43 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.
