What friday asks of you.
Ekadashi is a day of restraint. A lighter day — in food, in commitments, in words — tends to bring a clearer mind, and many keep a fast from grains.

Windows Explained
What these times mean, in plain words.
A Vedic day is divided into windows. Some are sought for beginnings, others are kept free of them. Here is each one — with its time friday in Singapore.
-
1
Find the gold window
The day's best time to begin something that matters. Friday it's 12:54 PM — 1:18 PM.

BEYOND TODAY
Need something more personal?
Daily timing is the same for everyone in Singapore. Your chart, your situation and your family's practice are not.
Timings are calculated for Singapore (Asia/Singapore) using the Lahiri ayanamsa and the amanta calendar. Regional traditions may observe some dates differently — for a muhurta that matters, ask a practitioner to confirm it for you.
