April 2025 Panchang: Daily Tithis, Nakshatras and Auspicious Times
April 2025 brings a mix of festivals, fast days and many good moments for new projects. If you know the tithi (lunar day) and the nakshatra (star) for each date, you can pick the right time for weddings, house moves or even a simple yoga practice. Below you’ll find the key details for each day, plus quick tips on how to use them.
Each day in the Panchang starts with the sunrise in Kerala, because the site focuses on God’s Own Country. The sunrise time for April 2025 ranges from around 6:05 am at the start of the month to 6:25 am by the end. The moon’s phase moves from a thin waning crescent on the 1st to a bright full moon on the 15th, then starts to wane again. This shift affects the tithi, so you’ll notice the 15th (Purnima) is a particularly powerful day for rituals.
Key Auspicious Days in April 2025
April 4 – Akshaya Tritiya (Shukla Paksha Pratipada): This is one of the most favorable days for starting new ventures. The nakshatra is Rohini, which encourages growth and prosperity. Many people buy gold or begin financial investments on this day.
April 7 – Mahavir Jayanti (Shukla Paksha Chaturthi): With the nakshatra Mrigashira, the day supports education and travel. It’s a good time to start a learning course or plan a short trip.
April 15 – Full Moon (Purnima) in Chaitra: The nakshatra is Vishakha, ideal for marriage ceremonies and spiritual practices. Light baths, meditation and charity work are especially rewarding.
April 20 – Vishu (Shukla Paksha Navami): This Kerala New Year falls under the nakshatra Swati, which helps with decision‑making and clearing old blocks. Many families do a traditional “Vishukkani” arrangement and start new accounts.
April 29 – Yuddha Purnima (Shukla Paksha Chaturdashi): The nakshatra is Anuradha, a good day for resolving disputes and signing contracts. It’s also a decent time for medical check‑ups.
How to Use This Panchang for Your Plans
First, note the tithi of the day you want to act on. If it’s a “Shukla” (bright) tithi, most activities are safe; “Krishna” (dark) tithis are better for inward work like meditation. Next, match the nakshatra with the type of activity: Rohini and Mrigashira for finance or travel, Vishakha for relationships, Swati for decisions.
Second, check the “muhurat” (time window) for the specific task. The Panchang usually lists a “Shubh” (auspicious) period of 2‑3 hours in the morning and another in the evening. Use a simple phone app or a printed chart to see the exact minutes. Starting a ceremony during the Shubh period increases the chance of smooth results.
Finally, keep an eye on “Rahu Kaal” – a 90‑minute block each day that is not advised for important work. In April 2025, Rahu Kaal falls roughly between 7:30 am‑9:00 am on the 1st, moves later each day, and ends around 2:00 pm on the 30th. Plan meetings, calls or signings outside this window.
By following these simple steps – tithi, nakshatra, muhurat and Rahu Kaal – you can align daily life with the natural rhythm shown in the April 2025 Panchang. Whether you’re planning a wedding, launching a business, or just looking for a calm moment to reflect, the Panchang gives you a practical roadmap.
