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 Kesra Dhani every day.
What is the tithi today in Kesra Dhani?
Today (18 June 2026) the tithi in Kesra Dhani is Shukla Paksha Chaturthi, until 7:01 PM IST.
What time is Rahu Kaal in Kesra Dhani today?
Rahu Kaal in Kesra Dhani today is 2:20 PM – 4:06 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Kesra Dhani's own sunrise and sunset, so it differs slightly from city to city even within India.
What is the shubh muhurat in Kesra Dhani today?
Abhijit Muhurat, the most dependable auspicious window of the day, is 12:07 PM – 1:03 PM IST in Kesra Dhani 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 Kesra Dhani (29.88°N, 74.02°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Kesra Dhani's own coordinates.
About Panchang in Kesra Dhani
Think of the panchang as the Hindu day's instruction sheet: five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the Moon's mansion), yoga, karana and vara — that tell you what each day favours. For Kesra Dhani, Rajasthan on 18 June 2026 the sheet reads Shukla Paksha Chaturthi tithi with the Moon in Pushya nakshatra. Every window further down is computed for Kesra Dhani's location (29.88°N, 74.02°E) rather than copied from a standard Indian-city table.
The reason a generic almanac misleads is geometry. Kesra Dhani stands at 29.88°N, 74.02°E and runs on Asia/Kolkata time, so the Sun crosses its horizon on a schedule unlike any Indian city's. On 18 June 2026 the sun rises over Kesra Dhani at 5:33 AM and sets at 7:37 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 Kesra Dhani 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 Kesra Dhani's actual sunrise and sunset. See our methodology page for the full working.
For the Hindu community in Kesra Dhani and the wider Rajasthan area, this page answers the practical questions: when to schedule a puja, griha pravesh, vehicle purchase, mundan or journey on Thursday, 18 June 2026. Abhijit Muhurat (12:07 PM – 1:03 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (2:20 PM – 4:06 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. For longer ceremonies, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — all in Kesra Dhani local time, so what you read is what your clock shows.
Today's Tithi in Kesra Dhani
The tithi on 18 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Chaturthi. 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 Kesra Dhani local time (Asia/Kolkata).
Today's Nakshatra in Kesra Dhani
The Moon is in Pushya 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 Kesra Dhani.
Today's Yoga in Kesra Dhani
Today's yoga is Vyaghata. 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 Kesra Dhani
On 18 June 2026 the sun rises in Kesra Dhani at 5:33 AM and sets at 7:37 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.
