About Panchang in Bahor Chak

Every traditional Hindu day is read through five limbs — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and the weekday (vara) — which together make up the panchang, literally "five limbs". This page sets out all five for Bahor Chak, Bihar on 18 June 2026: the Shukla Paksha Chaturthi tithi is in force with the Moon travelling through Pushya nakshatra. Crucially, every muhurat and kaal below is derived from Bahor Chak's own sunrise at 25.62°N, 86.27°E, not lifted from an India-time almanac.

Here is why this page is computed for Bahor Chak and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 25.62°N, 86.27°E on Asia/Kolkata time, Bahor Chak's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 18 June 2026 the sun rises over Bahor Chak at 4:54 AM and sets at 6:38 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and the inauspicious periods — Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika — along with the choghadiya sequence and Abhijit Muhurat are all slices of that local daylight, so each sits at a different clock time than it would in India. A large timezone offset can even move the tithi onto a different calendar date.

How these timings are calculated: planetary longitudes come from the Swiss Ephemeris, the same high-precision library used by professional astrology software, with the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa — the sidereal reference adopted by India's official Rashtriya Panchang. Tithi changes when the Moon moves 12° ahead of the Sun; nakshatra changes as the Moon crosses each 13°20′ arc of the zodiac. These transition moments are universal, and we convert each one into Asia/Kolkata local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Bahor Chak's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.

If you live in Bahor Chak or elsewhere in Bihar, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (11:18 AM – 12:13 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (1:29 PM – 3:12 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Thursday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Bahor Chak local time, with no conversion from IST required.
