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 Pilottiendal every day.

What is the tithi today in Pilottiendal?

Today (16 June 2026) the tithi in Pilottiendal is Shukla Paksha Dvitiya, until 12:55 AM IST.

What time is Rahu Kaal in Pilottiendal today?

Rahu Kaal in Pilottiendal today is 3:27 PM – 5:02 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Pilottiendal's own sunrise and sunset, so it differs slightly from city to city even within India.

What is the shubh muhurat in Pilottiendal today?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most dependable auspicious window of the day, is 11:52 AM – 12:42 PM IST in Pilottiendal 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 Pilottiendal (9.62°N, 78.34°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Pilottiendal's own coordinates.

About Panchang in Pilottiendal

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 Pilottiendal, Tamil Nadu for 16 June 2026: today the Shukla Paksha Dvitiya tithi prevails with the Moon in Ardra nakshatra, and every muhurat and kaal window below is worked out for Pilottiendal's own sky rather than copied from an Indian city's almanac.

A panchang is only as accurate as the place it is cast for. Sitting at 9.62°N, 78.34°E on Asia/Kolkata time, Pilottiendal keeps its own daily rhythm, distinct from Delhi or Mumbai. On 16 June 2026 the sun rises over Pilottiendal at 5:57 AM and sets at 6:37 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 Pilottiendal's real horizon. Details live on our methodology page.

Diaspora households in Pilottiendal and the wider Tamil Nadu area often face the hardest question last: what is the right time? On Tuesday, 16 June 2026, this page settles it — for a puja, housewarming, naming, vehicle purchase or journey alike. Abhijit Muhurat (11:52 AM – 12:42 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (3:27 PM – 5:02 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. Use the choghadiya tables above to find a clear stretch for longer rituals; each timing already reflects Pilottiendal's own clock.

Today's Tithi in Pilottiendal

The tithi on 16 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Dvitiya. 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 Pilottiendal local time (Asia/Kolkata).

Today's Nakshatra in Pilottiendal

The Moon is in Ardra 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 Pilottiendal.

Today's Yoga in Pilottiendal

Today's yoga is Vriddhi. 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 Pilottiendal

On 16 June 2026 the sun rises in Pilottiendal at 5:57 AM and sets at 6:37 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.
