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 Lonja every day.
Today (14 June 2026) the tithi in Lonja is Krishna Paksha Chaturdashi, until 12:22 PM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Lonja today is 5:30 PM – 7:10 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Lonja'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 12:03 PM – 12:56 PM IST in Lonja 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 Lonja (20.39°N, 75.10°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Lonja's own coordinates.
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 Lonja, Maharashtra on 14 June 2026 the sheet reads Krishna Paksha Chaturdashi tithi with the Moon in Rohini nakshatra. Every window further down is computed for Lonja's location (20.39°N, 75.10°E) rather than copied from a standard Indian-city table.
Here is why this page is computed for Lonja and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 20.39°N, 75.10°E on Asia/Kolkata time, Lonja's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 14 June 2026 the sun rises over Lonja at 5:49 AM and sets at 7:10 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 Lonja's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.
If you live in Lonja or elsewhere in Maharashtra, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (12:03 PM – 12:56 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (5:30 PM – 7:10 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Sunday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Lonja local time, with no conversion from IST required.
The tithi on 14 June 2026 is Krishna Paksha Chaturdashi. 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 Lonja local time (Asia/Kolkata).
The Moon is in Rohini 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 Lonja.
Today's yoga is Dhriti. 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 14 June 2026 the sun rises in Lonja at 5:49 AM and sets at 7:10 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.
