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
- Purnima in 2 days Fri, 28 Dec
- Angarki Sankashti Chaturthi in 6 days Tue, 1 Jan
- Krishna Shashti in 8 days Thu, 3 Jan
The rest of today

11:05 AM – 12:21 PM
1:22 PM – 2:44 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.
