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 Parapatti-2 every day.
Today (18 June 2026) the tithi in Parapatti-2 is Shukla Paksha Chaturthi, until 7:01 PM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Parapatti-2 today is 1:56 PM – 3:38 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Parapatti-2'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 11:46 AM – 12:40 PM IST in Parapatti-2 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 Parapatti-2 (24.92°N, 79.46°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Parapatti-2'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 Parapatti-2, Madhya Pradesh on 18 June 2026 the sheet reads Shukla Paksha Chaturthi tithi with the Moon in Pushya nakshatra. Every window further down is computed for Parapatti-2's location (24.92°N, 79.46°E) rather than copied from a standard Indian-city table.
A panchang is only as accurate as the place it is cast for. Sitting at 24.92°N, 79.46°E on Asia/Kolkata time, Parapatti-2 keeps its own daily rhythm, distinct from Delhi or Mumbai. On 18 June 2026 the sun rises over Parapatti-2 at 5:22 AM and sets at 7:03 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and every sunrise-bound window — Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, the choghadiya spells and Abhijit Muhurat — is measured off that local daylight. Borrow an IST table here and each window slips to the wrong hour; widen the gap enough and the very tithi on your date can differ.
Where do these timings come from? Planetary positions are read from the Swiss Ephemeris, the same high-precision dataset used by leading astrology programs, and corrected with the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa — the sidereal standard of India's official Rashtriya Panchang. Tithi advances each time the Moon pulls 12° further ahead of the Sun; nakshatra advances as the Moon enters the next 13°20′ division. These instants are universal; we render each in Asia/Kolkata time and derive the sunrise-linked windows from Parapatti-2's real horizon. Details live on our methodology page.
Diaspora households in Parapatti-2 and the wider Madhya Pradesh area often face the hardest question last: what is the right time? On Thursday, 18 June 2026, this page settles it — for a puja, housewarming, naming, vehicle purchase or journey alike. Abhijit Muhurat (11:46 AM – 12:40 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (1:56 PM – 3:38 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. Use the choghadiya tables above to find a clear stretch for longer rituals; each timing already reflects Parapatti-2's own clock.
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 Parapatti-2 local time (Asia/Kolkata).
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 Parapatti-2.
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.
On 18 June 2026 the sun rises in Parapatti-2 at 5:22 AM and sets at 7:03 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.
