Chaitra Shukla Navami (madhyahna observance) · Deity: Rama
Thursday, April 15, 2027
Panchang that morning (IST): Shukla Navami tithi · Pushya pada 4 · Moon in Cancer
Ram Navami celebrates the birth of Lord Rama at midday in Ayodhya, closing the nine nights of Chaitra Navratri. Rama’s life as maryada purushottama — the ideal of dharma lived under constraint — is the meditation of the day.
The birth moment is honored at madhyahna (midday), with Ramayana recitation, bhajans, and cradle ceremonies for infant Rama. Many observe a fast until the midday puja.
The madhyahna window is computed from local sunrise and sunset — roughly the middle fifth of your local day — so the puja time differs by city.
The festival is the same for everyone. The sky over it is not. Enter your birth details to see where Ram Navami’s presiding graha stands in your chart that day.
