Daily Horoscope for Monday, 28 December 2026

In short: The Moon is in Leo all day (sidereal). The tithi is Krishna Panchami, changing to Shashthi at 14:58 UTC+5:30. Around midday the Moon is in Magha, whose deity is the Pitris, the ancestors; it is a fierce (ugra) nakshatra, traditionally kept for demanding or decisive work rather than delicate beginnings. In Leo the Moon travels with Mars and Jupiter.

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 08:30–09:47 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 5th house, the house of children, creativity, intelligence and merit. The 5th is not among the Moon's favourable transit houses, so keep expectations around creative and family plans modest. It keeps company there with Mars and Jupiter, which tends to bring quick feelings and energy that wants a useful outlet and a steadier, more generous mood. Magha, the nakshatra of the day, belongs to Ketu; from your sign Ketu is in the 4th, linking the day with home life. It moves on to your 6th (work and health habits) at 21:37 UTC+5:30 tomorrow.
