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 Marganpalli every day.

What is the tithi today in Marganpalli?

Today (17 June 2026) the tithi in Marganpalli is Shukla Paksha Tritiya, until 9:41 PM IST.

What time is Rahu Kaal in Marganpalli today?

Rahu Kaal in Marganpalli today is 12:19 PM – 1:56 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Marganpalli's own sunrise and sunset, so it differs slightly from city to city even within India.

What is the shubh muhurat in Marganpalli today?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most dependable auspicious window of the day, is 11:54 AM – 12:45 PM IST in Marganpalli 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 Marganpalli (12.55°N, 77.82°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Marganpalli's own coordinates.

About Panchang in Marganpalli

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 Marganpalli, Tamil Nadu on 17 June 2026. Today's reckoning: Shukla Paksha Tritiya tithi, Moon in Punarvasu nakshatra. Every timing shown is calculated for Marganpalli's own coordinates instead of being reused from an Indian city's panchang.

Why does the city matter so much? Because nearly everything in a panchang is anchored to local sunrise. Marganpalli lies at 12.55°N, 77.82°E and keeps Asia/Kolkata time, so its days begin and end at different moments than any Indian city's. On 17 June 2026 the sun rises over Marganpalli at 5:53 AM and sets at 6:45 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, the eight choghadiya periods and Abhijit Muhurat are all fractions of that local daylight. Reading an India-time panchang in Marganpalli would put every one of those windows at the wrong local hour — and across a timezone gap, even the tithi in force on a given date can change.

A word on accuracy: every figure here is computed, not transcribed. Sun and Moon longitudes come from the Swiss Ephemeris — the precision engine behind professional jyotish software — referenced to the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa that India's Rashtriya Panchang adopts. The Moon gaining 12° on the Sun marks each new tithi; crossing the next 13°20′ arc marks each new nakshatra. We convert those universal moments to Asia/Kolkata time and then carve every sunrise-based window from Marganpalli's own daylight. The full method is on our methodology page.

For families in Marganpalli and across Tamil Nadu, this page turns the panchang into practical decisions for Wednesday, 17 June 2026: which hour suits a puja, a griha pravesh, a mundan, a new vehicle or setting out on a trip. Abhijit Muhurat (11:54 AM – 12:45 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (12:19 PM – 1:56 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. When a ceremony needs a longer stretch, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — every entry is in Marganpalli local time, so no IST arithmetic is needed.

Today's Tithi in Marganpalli

The tithi on 17 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Tritiya. 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 Marganpalli local time (Asia/Kolkata).

Today's Nakshatra in Marganpalli

The Moon is in Punarvasu 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 Marganpalli.

Today's Yoga in Marganpalli

Today's yoga is Dhruva. 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 Marganpalli

On 17 June 2026 the sun rises in Marganpalli at 5:53 AM and sets at 6:45 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.
