Today's Tithi in Ogunja
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 Ogunja local time (Africa/Nairobi).
Today's Nakshatra in Ogunja
The Moon is in Ardra 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 Ogunja.
Today's Yoga in Ogunja
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.
Sunrise and Sunset in Ogunja
On 16 June 2026 the sun rises in Ogunja at 6:39 AM and sets at 6:47 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 Ogunja
The panchang — Sanskrit for "five limbs" — is the Hindu calendar that describes a day by its tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (lunar mansion), yoga, karana and vara (weekday). What you see here is the full panchang for Ogunja, Siaya County on 16 June 2026: the day runs under the Shukla Paksha Dvitiya tithi with the Moon in Ardra nakshatra, and all auspicious and inauspicious windows are computed for Ogunja itself, not borrowed from a generic India-time table.
Location is not a detail in panchang work — it is the foundation. Ogunja, at 0.19°N, 34.30°E in the Africa/Nairobi zone, experiences a day that opens and closes on its own schedule rather than India's. On 16 June 2026 the sun rises over Ogunja at 6:39 AM and sets at 6:47 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and because Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, the choghadiya periods and Abhijit Muhurat are simply divisions of that local span of daylight, they fall at different clock times here. Even the prevailing tithi can shift across a timezone, since tithi boundaries are fixed worldwide moments that map to different local dates.
Accuracy here rests on observed astronomy. We take Sun and Moon longitudes from the Swiss Ephemeris and apply the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa — the reference India's Rashtriya Panchang uses — so the results are drik-siddha rather than table-derived. A tithi turns over when the Moon advances another 12° past the Sun, a nakshatra when it steps into the next 13°20′ sector; we express those moments in Africa/Nairobi time and slice every sunrise-dependent period from Ogunja's own daylight. Each step is set out on our methodology page.
Treat this as your scheduling companion in Ogunja: before fixing a puja, griha pravesh, mundan, vehicle purchase or journey on Tuesday, 16 June 2026, read the tithi and nakshatra, then pick the hour. Abhijit Muhurat (12:19 PM – 1:07 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (3:45 PM – 5:16 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above split the day and night of Tuesday into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already converted to Ogunja local time, so what you read is what your clock shows.
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 Ogunja, Kenya.
How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Ogunja?
The daylight between Ogunja'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 Ogunja'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 Ogunja on 16 June 2026?
Rahu Kalam in Ogunja on 16 June 2026 is from 3:45 PM – 5:16 PM Siaya County local time. It is computed from Ogunja's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.
What is the tithi on 16 June 2026 in Ogunja?
The tithi is Shukla Paksha Dvitiya, until 10:25 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Ogunja's timezone (Africa/Nairobi).
Why is the panchang for Ogunja different from India?
All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Ogunja (0.19°, 34.30°) 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 Ogunja.
What is the shubh muhurat in Ogunja on 16 June 2026?
Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:19 PM – 1:07 PM local time in Ogunja.
