ఈ రోజు గురువారం, శుక్ల తదియ తిథి, జ్యేష్ఠ నక్షత్రం, పాదం నాలుగవది. జ్యేష్ఠ నక్షత్రం సాధారణంగా గృహప్రవేశం, కొత్త పని ప్రారంభం, ప్రయాణం వంటి ముఖ్యమైన పనులకు అనుకూలంగా ఉంటుంది. పాదం నాలుగవది కూడా ఇటువంటి కార్యాలకు శుభంగా భావించబడుతుంది. కానీ, వివాహం, పెట్టుబడులు వంటి పెద్ద నిర్ణయాలను వాయిదా వేసుకోవడం మంచిది. ఈ రోజున ఆ పనులు చేసుకోవడానికి సరైన సమయం కాదు.

Today's Panchangam and any other date

A Panchangam is the daily almanac Telugu households check before a fast, a puja, or planning around Rahu Kalam: the day's Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga and the inauspicious windows to avoid. This page shows today panchangam by default and lets you pick any other date, past or future, using the same Lahiri sidereal calculation engine as the Jathakam tool.

Each field comes from the actual astronomical position of the Sun and Moon for the date you choose, not a static printed table. Sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kalam and Yamagandam are calculated for Hyderabad; Tithi, Nakshatra and Yoga are the same across Telugu-region cities on a given day.

Reading the result

Tithi tells you the lunar day and which fortnight (Shukla or Krishna Paksha) it falls in, the value most festival and fasting dates are fixed to. Nakshatra is the constellation the Moon occupies that day, useful for checking an auspicious Nakshatra for starting something new. Rahu Kalam and Yamagandam are the two daily windows most commonly avoided for travel or new beginnings; both shift by roughly 90 minutes depending on the weekday.

Planning a Muhurtham from here

This page shows one day at a time. If you're comparing several candidate dates for a marriage, Gruha Pravesham or other ceremony, see the Muhurtham page for what a good date is generally built from before checking each candidate here.

Panchangam questions

What is a Panchangam and what five things does it track?
Panchangam means "five limbs": Tithi (lunar day), Vaara (weekday), Nakshatra (the Moon's constellation), Yoga (a Sun-Moon angle combination) and Karana (half a Tithi). Together they set which days are auspicious for which activities in Telugu tradition.
What is Tithi and why does it matter more than the Gregorian date?
Tithi is a lunar day, one of 30 divisions of the Moon's monthly cycle relative to the Sun. Festival and fasting dates are fixed to a Tithi, not a Gregorian date, so the same festival lands on a different calendar date each year.
What is Rahu Kalam and how is it calculated here?
Rahu Kalam is a roughly 90-minute daily window traditionally avoided for starting new ventures, travel or ceremonies. It is one of eight equal segments between sunrise and sunset, and which segment depends on the day of the week.
What is Yamagandam?
Yamagandam is a second inauspicious daylight window, calculated the same way as Rahu Kalam (one of eight equal segments between sunrise and sunset) but assigned to a different segment for each weekday.
What is Nakshatra and Pada in today's Panchangam?
Nakshatra is one of 27 lunar constellations the Moon is passing through on a given day; Pada is a quarter-division within it. It changes every day or two as the Moon moves, unlike your birth Nakshatra which is fixed for life.
What is Yoga in a Panchangam, and how is it different from Tithi?
Yoga is one of 27 fixed combinations of the Sun and Moon's longitudes added together, distinct from Tithi (their difference). Some Yogas are considered favourable and others inauspicious for specific activities.
Can I check the Panchangam for a future or past date, not just today?
Yes, use the date picker above. The calculation is the same Lahiri sidereal, Swiss Ephemeris engine used for today, run for whichever date you pick.
What is the difference between Shukla Paksha and Krishna Paksha?
Shukla Paksha is the waxing fortnight, from Amavasya (new moon) to Pournami (full moon); Krishna Paksha is the waning fortnight, from Pournami back to Amavasya. Each Paksha has the same 15 Tithi names, so the Paksha tells them apart.
What is Ekadashi and how is it found in the Panchangam?
Ekadashi is the 11th Tithi of either fortnight, observed as a fasting day. Pick a date near the middle or end of a lunar month above and check the Tithi field; Ekadashi appears roughly twice a month.
Why do sunrise and sunset times shown here differ slightly from other apps?
These are computed from a standard solar-position formula for the given date and location, accurate to about a minute. Small differences from another source usually come from a different location assumption or rounding, not a different method.
Does the Panchangam here account for my exact city?
Currently it is calculated for Hyderabad. Sunrise, sunset, Rahu Kalam and Yamagandam shift by a few minutes across Telugu-region cities, Tithi, Nakshatra and Yoga do not change meaningfully for same-day locations within India.
What is Amavasya and why do some months have two?
Amavasya is the new moon, the last Tithi of Krishna Paksha. Two Amavasyas can fall in the same Gregorian month roughly once every few years, since the lunar month (about 29.5 days) doesn't line up evenly with any calendar month.
How do I use this Panchangam to plan a Puja or fast?
Pick your date, read the Tithi and Nakshatra for what the day is dedicated to, and avoid starting anything new during the Rahu Kalam or Yamagandam windows shown. For a specific ceremony's Muhurtham, see the Muhurtham page.

Pro Tip: The Japa Mala Sumeru Rule and Planetary Shanti Chanting

When chanting planetary beej mantras on a 108-bead Rudraksha or Sandalwood mala, roll each bead forward with your thumb and middle finger. Do not touch beads with your index finger, as classical scriptures associate the index finger with personal ego. When you complete 108 repetitions and reach the Sumeru (the 109th crown bead), never cross over it. Instead, rotate the entire mala 180 degrees and count back in reverse. For optimal planetary benefits, chant during Brahma Muhurta or sunset twilight.
