Aaj Ki Tithi

Today's tithi with the time it ends, the paksha and the lunar month, and tomorrow's tithi.

What is a tithi?

A tithi is a lunar day: the time the Moon takes to gain 12 degrees on the Sun. A lunar month has 30 tithis in two halves, the bright Shukla Paksha (Pratipada to Purnima) and the dark Krishna Paksha (Pratipada to Amavasya).

A tithi can last from about 19 to 26 hours and can begin at any time of day, so the tithi of a date is the one running at sunrise. A tithi that falls entirely between two sunrises is a kshaya (lost) tithi; one that covers two sunrises is a vriddhi tithi.

Is today's tithi good for you?
