The five limbs of Panchanga

Tithi

A lunar day based on each 12° of angular separation between the Moon and the Sun.

Vara

The weekday and its traditional planetary ruler.

Nakshatra

One of the 27 equal stellar divisions occupied by the Moon.

Yoga

One of 27 divisions calculated from the sum of the sidereal solar and lunar longitudes.

Karana

Half of a Tithi, corresponding to 6° of Moon–Sun angular separation.

How to read the timings

Check ending times

Tithi and Nakshatra may change during the civil date. Read the ending time rather than assuming they continue until midnight.

Use local sunrise

Many observances use local sunrise as an important boundary, so the selected city and timezone matter.

Do not use one factor alone

A full Muhurta may also consider the activity, Lagna, planetary conditions and personal birth factors.

Expect methodological differences

Ayanamsha, sunrise definition, ephemeris settings, coordinates and regional rules can create differences between Panchangas.

Do not delay emergency care, safety action, legal deadlines or essential travel because of a Panchanga period.

Frequently asked questions

Why do Panchanga timings change by city?

Sunrise, sunset, Moonrise and many daytime divisions depend on latitude, longitude and timezone.

Does the Panchanga day begin at midnight?

The civil date changes at midnight, while many observances and festival rules use local sunrise as an important day boundary.

What does a Tithi or Nakshatra ending time mean?

It is the local clock time when the current Tithi or Nakshatra ends and the next one begins.

Is Rahu Kalam a complete prohibition?

It is a traditional period commonly considered when beginning a new activity. It should not delay urgent, necessary or already ongoing work.

Is Abhijit Muhurta suitable for every activity?

No. The nature of the activity and other Panchanga and chart factors may also need to be reviewed.

Can this page choose a complete marriage or housewarming Muhurta?

No. It provides daily timing data. A full event-specific Muhurta uses additional rules and may require personal birth data.

Why can another Panchanga differ by a few minutes?

Differences can arise from coordinates, timezone handling, sunrise definition, Ayanamsha, ephemeris settings and rounding.

Note: Festival and eclipse dates on this website are calculated using Swiss Ephemeris and Drik Siddhanta. Timings shown are adjusted for your selected city's latitude and longitude, with sunrise, sunset, moonrise, and moonset computed using topocentric coordinates. Minor differences may still occur due to regional traditions or local panchangam variations. When in doubt, please verify with your local panchangam or family priest.
