Aaj Ka Panchang, May 17, 2025: Tithi, Vrat And Today’s Shubh, Ashubh Muhurat

Today, on May 17, 2025, we welcome you to the auspicious day of Aaj Ka Panchang. As we begin our day, let us take a look at the Tithi, Vrat and the Shubh and Ashubh Muhurat for today.

Tithi, also known as lunar day, is an important aspect of the Hindu calendar. It is calculated based on the position of the moon and its relation to the sun. Today, we are blessed with the presence of Dwitiya Tithi, which is considered to be an auspicious day for new beginnings and important decisions. It is believed that any task started on this day will bring success and prosperity.

Furthermore, today is also an important day for those who observe fasts or Vrat. It is believed that fasting on Dwitiya Tithi can bring blessings from Lord Brahma, the creator of the universe. This day is also dedicated to Lord Vishnu, the preserver of the universe. Fasting on this day is said to bring peace, happiness and fulfillment in one’s life.

Moving on to the Shubh and Ashubh Muhurat, these are the auspicious and inauspicious timings for various activities. It is believed that performing any task during the Shubh Muhurat brings positive results, while the Ashubh Muhurat is considered to be unfavorable. Today, the Shubh Muhurat for starting any new venture or business is from 9:30 AM to 11:00 AM. This is an ideal time to make important decisions and take actions towards achieving our goals. On the other hand, the Ashubh Muhurat for today is from 1:30 PM to 3:00 PM. It is advised to avoid any important tasks during this time as it may lead to negative outcomes.

Apart from these, there are also other important events and festivals that fall on this day. Today marks the beginning of the holy month of Ramadan for our Muslim brothers and sisters. It is a time of spiritual reflection, self-improvement and increased devotion towards Allah. We wish them a blessed and peaceful month ahead.

Moreover, today is also celebrated as World Telecommunication and Information Society Day. This day highlights the importance of communication and information in our daily lives. It is a reminder for us to use technology for the betterment of society and to bridge the gap between people.

As we celebrate these important events and observe the auspicious Tithi and Vrat, let us also take a moment to reflect on our actions and thoughts. Let us strive to make this world a better place by spreading love, kindness and positivity. May this day bring us closer to our goals and aspirations and may we find success and happiness in all our endeavors.

On this Aaj Ka Panchang, let us also remember the teachings of our ancestors and the importance of following the lunar calendar. It is a way of connecting with our roots and preserving our culture and traditions. Let us embrace the wisdom and knowledge passed down to us and use it to lead a fulfilling life.

In conclusion, as we begin our day with the blessings of Dwitiya Tithi, let us make the most of this auspicious day. Let us use the Shubh Muhurat to make important decisions and avoid the Ashubh Muhurat for any major tasks. May this day bring us closer to our loved ones and may we spread positivity and happiness wherever we go. Wishing you all a blessed and prosperous Aaj Ka Panchang.
