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
- Aja Ekadashi in 2 days Mon, 13 Aug
- Pradosh Vrat in 4 days Wed, 15 Aug
- Mahalaya Amavasya in 6 days Fri, 17 Aug
The rest of today
Inauspicious periods

2:04 PM – 3:43 PM
5:52 AM – 7:30 AM
8:29 AM – 10:14 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.
