Today's Tithi in Luddenham

The tithi on 17 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Tritiya. A tithi is one lunar day — the time the Moon takes to move 12° further from the Sun — and it governs which observances, fasts and ceremonies suit the day. End times on this page are converted to Luddenham local time (Australia/Sydney).

Today's Nakshatra in Luddenham

The Moon is in Punarvasu nakshatra. The zodiac is divided into 27 nakshatras of 13°20′ each; the one the Moon occupies colours the day's character and matters for naming ceremonies, travel decisions and muhurat selection in Luddenham.

Today's Yoga in Luddenham

Today's yoga is Dhruva. Yoga is computed from the combined longitudes of the Sun and Moon and cycles through 27 names; some yogas are read as favourable for new undertakings while others counsel routine work.

Sunrise and Sunset in Luddenham

On 17 June 2026 the sun rises in Luddenham at 7:01 AM and sets at 4:55 PM. Sunrise is the hinge of the whole panchang: the Hindu day begins at local sunrise, and Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika and the choghadiya sequence are all equal divisions of the daylight between these two moments.

About Panchang in Luddenham

The panchang — Sanskrit for "five limbs" — is the Hindu calendar that describes a day by its tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (lunar mansion), yoga, karana and vara (weekday). What you see here is the full panchang for Luddenham, New South Wales on 17 June 2026: the day runs under the Shukla Paksha Tritiya tithi with the Moon in Punarvasu nakshatra, and all auspicious and inauspicious windows are computed for Luddenham itself, not borrowed from a generic India-time table.

Location is not a detail in panchang work — it is the foundation. Luddenham, at 33.88°S, 150.69°E in the Australia/Sydney zone, experiences a day that opens and closes on its own schedule rather than India's. On 17 June 2026 the sun rises over Luddenham at 7:01 AM and sets at 4:55 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and because Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, the choghadiya periods and Abhijit Muhurat are simply divisions of that local span of daylight, they fall at different clock times here. Even the prevailing tithi can shift across a timezone, since tithi boundaries are fixed worldwide moments that map to different local dates.

Accuracy here rests on observed astronomy. We take Sun and Moon longitudes from the Swiss Ephemeris and apply the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa — the reference India's Rashtriya Panchang uses — so the results are drik-siddha rather than table-derived. A tithi turns over when the Moon advances another 12° past the Sun, a nakshatra when it steps into the next 13°20′ sector; we express those moments in Australia/Sydney time and slice every sunrise-dependent period from Luddenham's own daylight. Each step is set out on our methodology page.

Treat this as your scheduling companion in Luddenham: before fixing a puja, griha pravesh, mundan, vehicle purchase or journey on Wednesday, 17 June 2026, read the tithi and nakshatra, then pick the hour. Abhijit Muhurat (11:38 AM – 12:18 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (11:58 AM – 1:12 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above split the day and night of Wednesday into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already converted to Luddenham local time, so what you read is what your clock shows.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a panchang?

A panchang is the Hindu almanac that describes each day through five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the Moon's constellation), yoga, karana and vara (weekday) — and from them derives the day's auspicious (muhurat) and inauspicious (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda) periods. This page computes all of them for Luddenham, Australia.

How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Luddenham?

The daylight between Luddenham's local sunrise and sunset is divided into eight equal parts, and one fixed part belongs to Rahu depending on the weekday (for example the 8th part on Sunday, the 2nd on Monday). Because Luddenham's sunrise and day length differ from India's, its Rahu Kalam falls at different clock times than in Indian cities.

What time is Rahu Kalam in Luddenham on 17 June 2026?

Rahu Kalam in Luddenham on 17 June 2026 is from 11:58 AM – 1:12 PM New South Wales local time. It is computed from Luddenham's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.

What is the tithi on 17 June 2026 in Luddenham?

The tithi is Shukla Paksha Tritiya, until 2:11 AM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Luddenham's timezone (Australia/Sydney).

Why is the panchang for Luddenham different from India?

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Luddenham (-33.88°, 150.69°) has different sun times than India, so Rahu Kalam, choghadiya and muhurat windows shift — and because of the time difference, even the tithi prevailing on your calendar date can differ from India's. This page is computed specifically for Luddenham.

What is the shubh muhurat in Luddenham on 17 June 2026?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 11:38 AM – 12:18 PM local time in Luddenham.
