Daily Horoscope for Monday, 26 October 2026

In short: The Moon is in Aries all day (sidereal). The tithi is Shukla Purnima, changing to Pratipada at 09:41 UTC+5:30. Around midday the Moon is in Ashwini, whose deity is the Ashvins, twin physicians of the gods; it is a light and swift (kshipra) nakshatra, traditionally suited to quick, practical tasks — learning, trade, short journeys. The Sun (7th-house aspect), Mercury (7th-house aspect) and Venus (7th-house aspect) aspect its sign — adding pride and purpose and adding curiosity. Vajra is among the yogas that muhurta texts set aside for new ventures; ordinary work goes on as usual.

Today's sky

Rahu kaal is the 2nd of the eight equal parts of daytime on a Monday, counted from local sunrise, so its clock time depends on where you are: in New Delhi today it runs 07:52–09:16 UTC+5:30. Many families avoid starting new work in it; your local times are on the panchang.

By Moon sign (Vedic)

Aries (Mesha)

The Moon spends the whole day in your 1st house, the house of self, body and vitality.
