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 derives from them the day's auspicious and inauspicious periods. This page computes all of them for Heturi every day.
What is the tithi today in Heturi?
Today (15 June 2026) the tithi in Heturi is Krishna Paksha Amavasya, until 8:26 AM IST.
What time is Rahu Kaal in Heturi today?
Rahu Kaal in Heturi today is 6:33 AM – 8:15 AM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Heturi's own sunrise and sunset, so it differs slightly from city to city even within India.
What is the shubh muhurat in Heturi today?
Abhijit Muhurat, the most dependable auspicious window of the day, is 11:12 AM – 12:06 PM IST in Heturi today. For longer ceremonies, also check the auspicious choghadiya periods listed on this page.
Why is the panchang slightly different for each city?
Sunrise-based periods — Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, choghadiya, Abhijit Muhurat — are fractions of the local day length, and sunrise in Heturi (24.08°N, 87.77°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Heturi's own coordinates.
About Panchang in Heturi
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 Heturi, West Bengal. On 15 June 2026 the day unfolds under the Krishna Paksha Amavasya tithi with the Moon in Mrigashira nakshatra. Because the timings are tied to Heturi's own horizon (24.08°N, 87.77°E), they differ from the figures an Indian city would show.
The reason a generic almanac misleads is geometry. Heturi stands at 24.08°N, 87.77°E and runs on Asia/Kolkata time, so the Sun crosses its horizon on a schedule unlike any Indian city's. On 15 June 2026 the sun rises over Heturi at 4:51 AM and sets at 6:28 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 Heturi 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 Asia/Kolkata time and then compute Rahu Kalam, the choghadiya and the rest from Heturi's actual sunrise and sunset. See our methodology page for the full working.
For the Hindu community in Heturi and the wider West Bengal area, this page answers the practical questions: when to schedule a puja, griha pravesh, vehicle purchase, mundan or journey on Monday, 15 June 2026. Abhijit Muhurat (11:12 AM – 12:06 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (6:33 AM – 8:15 AM) is best avoided for new beginnings. For longer ceremonies, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — all in Heturi local time, so what you read is what your clock shows.
Today's Tithi in Heturi
The tithi on 15 June 2026 is Krishna Paksha Amavasya. 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 Heturi local time (Asia/Kolkata).
Today's Nakshatra in Heturi
The Moon is in Mrigashira 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 Heturi.
Today's Yoga in Heturi
Today's yoga is Shula. 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 Heturi
On 15 June 2026 the sun rises in Heturi at 4:51 AM and sets at 6:28 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.
