Today's Tithi in Simao Dias

The tithi on 18 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Chaturthi. 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 Simao Dias local time (America/Maceio).

Today's Nakshatra in Simao Dias

The Moon is in Ashlesha 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 Simao Dias.

Today's Yoga in Simao Dias

Today's yoga is Vyaghata. 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 Simao Dias

On 18 June 2026 the sun rises in Simao Dias at 5:47 AM and sets at 5:17 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 Simao Dias

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 Simao Dias, Sergipe on 18 June 2026: the Shukla Paksha Chaturthi tithi is in force with the Moon travelling through Ashlesha nakshatra. Crucially, every muhurat and kaal below is derived from Simao Dias's own sunrise at 10.74°S, 37.81°W, not lifted from an India-time almanac.

The reason a generic almanac misleads is geometry. Simao Dias stands at 10.74°S, 37.81°W and runs on America/Maceio time, so the Sun crosses its horizon on a schedule unlike any Indian city's. On 18 June 2026 the sun rises over Simao Dias at 5:47 AM and sets at 5:17 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, the eight choghadiya periods and Abhijit Muhurat are each cut from the interval between this local sunrise and sunset. Use IST figures in Simao Dias and every window lands at the wrong moment — and over a wide enough longitude gap, the date's tithi itself can change.

Behind the timings on this page is a precise pipeline: Swiss Ephemeris longitudes for the Sun and Moon, adjusted by the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa adopted in India's Rashtriya Panchang. The rule is simple — a tithi closes when the Moon is 12° further along than the Sun, a nakshatra when the Moon enters the next 13°20′ span. Those moments hold worldwide, so we translate each into America/Maceio time and then compute Rahu Kalam, the choghadiya and the rest from Simao Dias's actual sunrise and sunset. See our methodology page for the full working.

For the Hindu community in Simao Dias and the wider Sergipe area, this page answers the practical questions: when to schedule a puja, griha pravesh, vehicle purchase, mundan or journey on Thursday, 18 June 2026. Abhijit Muhurat (11:09 AM – 11:55 AM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (12:58 PM – 2:24 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. For longer ceremonies, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — all in Simao Dias 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 Simao Dias, Brazil.

How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Simao Dias?

The daylight between Simao Dias'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 Simao Dias'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 Simao Dias on 18 June 2026?

Rahu Kalam in Simao Dias on 18 June 2026 is from 12:58 PM – 2:24 PM Sergipe local time. It is computed from Simao Dias's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.

What is the tithi on 18 June 2026 in Simao Dias?

The tithi is Shukla Paksha Chaturthi, until 10:31 AM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Simao Dias's timezone (America/Maceio).

Why is the panchang for Simao Dias different from India?

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Simao Dias (-10.74°, -37.81°) 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 Simao Dias.

What is the shubh muhurat in Simao Dias on 18 June 2026?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 11:09 AM – 11:55 AM local time in Simao Dias.
