The tithi on 20 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Shashthi. 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 Koenigslutter am Elm local time (Europe/Berlin).
The Moon is in Magha 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 Koenigslutter am Elm.
Today's yoga is Vajra. 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 20 June 2026 the sun rises in Koenigslutter am Elm at 4:54 AM and sets at 9:41 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.
A panchang is the traditional Hindu almanac that maps each day through five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the constellation the Moon occupies), yoga, karana and vara (weekday). This page carries the complete panchang for Koenigslutter am Elm, Lower Saxony for 20 June 2026: today the Shukla Paksha Shashthi tithi prevails with the Moon in Magha nakshatra, and every muhurat and kaal window below is worked out for Koenigslutter am Elm's own sky rather than copied from an Indian city's almanac.
Here is why this page is computed for Koenigslutter am Elm and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 52.25°N, 10.82°E on Europe/Berlin time, Koenigslutter am Elm's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 20 June 2026 the sun rises over Koenigslutter am Elm at 4:54 AM and sets at 9:41 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 Europe/Berlin local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Koenigslutter am Elm's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.

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 Koenigslutter am Elm, Germany.
The daylight between Koenigslutter am Elm'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 Koenigslutter am Elm's sunrise and day length differ from India's, its Rahu Kalam falls at different clock times than in Indian cities.
Rahu Kalam in Koenigslutter am Elm on 20 June 2026 is from 9:06 AM – 11:12 AM Lower Saxony local time. It is computed from Koenigslutter am Elm's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.
The tithi is Shukla Paksha Shashthi, until 12:19 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Koenigslutter am Elm's timezone (Europe/Berlin).
All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset.
