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
- Mokshada Ekadashi in 2 days Fri, 25 Dec
- Pradosh Vrat in 4 days Sun, 27 Dec
- Purnima in 7 days Wed, 30 Dec
The rest of today

11:04 AM – 12:20 PM
1:21 PM – 2:42 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 →

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.
