Today's Tithi in Faza

The tithi on 19 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Panchami. 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 Faza local time (Africa/Nairobi).

Today's Nakshatra in Faza

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 Faza.

Today's Yoga in Faza

Today's yoga is Harshana. 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 Faza

On 19 June 2026 the sun rises in Faza at 6:16 AM and sets at 6:17 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 Faza

Hindus have timed worship, travel and new beginnings with the panchang for centuries. It reads each day through five limbs — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara — and this page presents all five for Faza, Lamu on 19 June 2026. Today's reckoning: Shukla Paksha Panchami tithi, Moon in Ashlesha nakshatra. Every timing shown is calculated for Faza's own coordinates instead of being reused from an Indian city's panchang.

Here is why this page is computed for Faza and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 2.06°S, 41.11°E on Africa/Nairobi time, Faza's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 19 June 2026 the sun rises over Faza at 6:16 AM and sets at 6:17 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/Nairobi local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Faza's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.

If you live in Faza or elsewhere in Lamu, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (11:53 AM – 12:41 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (10:47 AM – 12:17 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Friday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Faza 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 Faza, Kenya.

How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Faza?

The daylight between Faza'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 Faza'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 Faza on 19 June 2026?

Rahu Kalam in Faza on 19 June 2026 is from 10:47 AM – 12:17 PM Lamu local time. It is computed from Faza's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.

What is the tithi on 19 June 2026 in Faza?

The tithi is Shukla Paksha Panchami, until 2:32 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Faza's timezone (Africa/Nairobi).

Why is the panchang for Faza different from India?

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Faza (-2.06°, 41.11°) 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 Faza.

What is the shubh muhurat in Faza on 19 June 2026?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 11:53 AM – 12:41 PM local time in Faza.
