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
- Apara Ekadashi in 2 days Mon, 18 May
- Bhauma Pradosh in 3 days Tue, 19 May
- Amavasya in 6 days Fri, 22 May
The rest of today
Inauspicious periods

1:58 PM – 3:39 PM
5:33 AM – 7:14 AM
8:15 AM – 10:03 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.
