Today's Tithi in Werota

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 Werota local time (Africa/Addis Ababa).

Today's Nakshatra in Werota

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 Werota.

Today's Yoga in Werota

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 Werota

On 17 June 2026 the sun rises in Werota at 6:05 AM and sets at 6:54 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 Werota

The five limbs of the panchang — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara — have guided Hindu timekeeping for millennia, and this page works all five out specifically for Werota, Amhara. On 17 June 2026 the day unfolds under the Shukla Paksha Tritiya tithi with the Moon in Punarvasu nakshatra. Because the timings are tied to Werota's own horizon (11.92°N, 37.70°E), they differ from the figures an Indian city would show.

Here is why this page is computed for Werota and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 11.92°N, 37.70°E on Africa/Addis Ababa time, Werota's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 17 June 2026 the sun rises over Werota at 6:05 AM and sets at 6:54 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 Africa/Addis Ababa local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Werota's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.

If you live in Werota or elsewhere in Amhara, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (12:04 PM – 12:55 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (12:30 PM – 2:06 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Wednesday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Werota local time, with no conversion from IST required.

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 Werota, Ethiopia.

How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Werota?

The daylight between Werota'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 Werota'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 Werota on 17 June 2026?

Rahu Kalam in Werota on 17 June 2026 is from 12:30 PM – 2:06 PM Amhara local time. It is computed from Werota'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 Werota?

The tithi is Shukla Paksha Tritiya, until 7:11 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Werota's timezone (Africa/Addis Ababa).

Why is the panchang for Werota different from India?

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Werota (11.92°, 37.70°) 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 Werota.

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

Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:04 PM – 12:55 PM local time in Werota.
