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
- Sharad Purnima tomorrow Sun, 25 Oct
- Karwa Chauth in 5 days Thu, 29 Oct
- Sankashti Chaturthi in 5 days Thu, 29 Oct
The rest of today
Inauspicious periods

1:28 PM – 2:52 PM
6:31 AM – 7:54 AM
8:44 AM – 10:13 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.
