Daily Horoscope for Thursday, 22 October 2026

In short: The Moon is in Aquarius all day (sidereal). The tithi is Shukla Ekadashi, changing to Dwadashi at 14:48 UTC+5:30. Around midday the Moon is in Shatabhisha, whose deity is Varuna, lord of the waters and of cosmic order; it is a movable (chara) nakshatra, traditionally suited to movement and change — travel, errands, rearranging. In Aquarius the Moon travels with Rahu. Mars (8th-house aspect) aspects its sign — adding heat, so pace yourself. Vishti karana (Bhadra), which almanacs avoid for auspicious beginnings, runs from 02:36 to 14:48 UTC+5:30.

Today's sky

Rahu kaal is the 6th of the eight equal parts of daytime on a Thursday, counted from local sunrise, so its clock time depends on where you are: in New Delhi today it runs 13:30–14:55 UTC+5:30. Many families avoid starting new work in it; your local times are on the panchang.
