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
- Pausha Putrada Ekadashi in 2 days Mon, 28 Dec
- Bhauma Pradosh in 3 days Tue, 29 Dec
- Purnima in 5 days Thu, 31 Dec
The rest of today
Inauspicious periods

1:38 PM – 2:54 PM
7:16 AM – 8:32 AM
9:18 AM – 10:39 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 →

Your observances
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.
