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 Kumhiyan every day.
Today (20 June 2026) the tithi in Kumhiyan is Shukla Paksha Shashthi, until 3:49 PM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Kumhiyan today is 8:41 AM – 10:23 AM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Kumhiyan's own sunrise and sunset, so it differs slightly from city to city even within India.
Abhijit Muhurat, the most dependable auspicious window of the day, is 11:38 AM – 12:33 PM IST in Kumhiyan today. For longer ceremonies, also check the auspicious choghadiya periods listed on this page.
Sunrise-based periods — Rahu Kaal, Yamaganda, Gulika, choghadiya, Abhijit Muhurat — are fractions of the local day length, and sunrise in Kumhiyan (24.20°N, 81.38°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Kumhiyan's own coordinates.
A panchang is the traditional Hindu almanac that maps each day through five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the constellation the Moon occupies), yoga, karana and vara (weekday). This page carries the complete panchang for Kumhiyan, Madhya Pradesh for 20 June 2026: today the Shukla Paksha Shashthi tithi prevails with the Moon in Magha nakshatra, and every muhurat and kaal window below is worked out for Kumhiyan's own sky rather than copied from an Indian city's almanac.
Here is why this page is computed for Kumhiyan and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 24.20°N, 81.38°E on Asia/Kolkata time, Kumhiyan's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 20 June 2026 the sun rises over Kumhiyan at 5:17 AM and sets at 6:55 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 Asia/Kolkata local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Kumhiyan's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.
If you live in Kumhiyan or elsewhere in Madhya Pradesh, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (11:38 AM – 12:33 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (8:41 AM – 10:23 AM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Saturday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Kumhiyan local time, with no conversion from IST required.
The tithi on 20 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Shashthi. 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 Kumhiyan local time (Asia/Kolkata).
The Moon is in Magha 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 Kumhiyan.
Today's yoga is Vajra. 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.
On 20 June 2026 the sun rises in Kumhiyan at 5:17 AM and sets at 6:55 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.
