Thursday's Guidance
What thursday asks of you.

The day's best time to begin something that matters. Thursday it's 12:46 PM — 1:34 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.
