Sunday 27 September 2026: the full moon has passed and Krishna Pratipada opens the dark fortnight under Vriddhi yoga, a day for slow beginnings. Read the day and get your free chart.

Does any of this apply to you?

The page above is written for everyone. Your chart is not. Give us your birth date and place and we will show you which parts of it are true for you, and which are not. About 20 seconds, no account.

I do not know my birth time (we read from the Moon instead)

The full moon is spent. Saturday's Purnima and its knotted Ganda yoga have passed, and today opens the waning fortnight on a much kinder note.

Today is Krishna Pratipada, the first day of the dark half, held by Brahma the maker. Its nature is neutral, which in practice means it takes the colour of what you put into it. It runs until 21:00.

The yoga is Vriddhi, and the name means increase. What you begin under it tends to compound rather than fizzle, so this is a day to plant, not to harvest. Yesterday's Ganda pulled the other way, and that tension is gone.

Uttara Bhadrapada, a Saturn star of patience and slow foundations, holds the morning until 11:09. Use those early hours for the thing that needs steadiness, not speed.

The Moon sits in Pisces and the Sun in Virgo, a quiet, work-minded pairing. Keep the day practical and it will keep its promise.

The caution windows, Rahu Kaal and the rest, genuinely shift with your city's sunrise, so I won't hand you Delhi's figures as if they were yours. Check your own at the panchang tool.
