The tithi on 16 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Dvitiya. 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 Double Head Cabbage local time (America/Belize).
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 Double Head Cabbage.
Today's yoga is Vriddhi. 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.
On 16 June 2026 the sun rises in Double Head Cabbage at 5:19 AM and sets at 6:30 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.
Think of the panchang as the Hindu day's instruction sheet: five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the Moon's mansion), yoga, karana and vara — that tell you what each day favours. For Double Head Cabbage, Belize District on 16 June 2026 the sheet reads Shukla Paksha Dvitiya tithi with the Moon in Punarvasu nakshatra. Every window further down is computed for Double Head Cabbage's location (17.54°N, 88.56°W) rather than copied from a standard Indian-city table.
Here is why this page is computed for Double Head Cabbage and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 17.54°N, 88.56°W on America/Belize time, Double Head Cabbage's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 16 June 2026 the sun rises over Double Head Cabbage at 5:19 AM and sets at 6:30 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 America/Belize local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Double Head Cabbage's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.
If you live in Double Head Cabbage or elsewhere in Belize District, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (11:28 AM – 12:21 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (3:12 PM – 4:51 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Tuesday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Double Head Cabbage local time, with no conversion from IST required.
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 Double Head Cabbage, Belize.
The daylight between Double Head Cabbage'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 Double Head Cabbage's sunrise and day length differ from India's, its Rahu Kalam falls at different clock times than in Indian cities.
Rahu Kalam in Double Head Cabbage on 16 June 2026 is from 3:12 PM – 4:51 PM Belize District local time. It is computed from Double Head Cabbage's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.
The tithi is Shukla Paksha Dvitiya, until 1:25 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Double Head Cabbage's timezone (America/Belize).
