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 Rakasgi every day.
Today (15 June 2026) the tithi in Rakasgi is Krishna Paksha Amavasya, until 8:26 AM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Rakasgi today is 7:31 AM – 9:09 AM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Rakasgi'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 11:59 AM – 12:51 PM IST in Rakasgi 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 Rakasgi (16.18°N, 76.22°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Rakasgi's own coordinates.
The panchang — Sanskrit for "five limbs" — is the Hindu calendar that describes a day by its tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (lunar mansion), yoga, karana and vara (weekday). What you see here is the full panchang for Rakasgi, Karnataka on 15 June 2026: the day runs under the Krishna Paksha Amavasya tithi with the Moon in Mrigashira nakshatra, and all auspicious and inauspicious windows are computed for Rakasgi itself, not borrowed from a generic India-time table.
Why does the city matter so much? Because nearly everything in a panchang is anchored to local sunrise. Rakasgi lies at 16.18°N, 76.22°E and keeps Asia/Kolkata time, so its days begin and end at different moments than any Indian city's. On 15 June 2026 the sun rises over Rakasgi at 5:53 AM and sets at 6:58 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 Rakasgi 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 Rakasgi's own daylight. The full method is on our methodology page.
For families in Rakasgi and across Karnataka, this page turns the panchang into practical decisions for Monday, 15 June 2026: which hour suits a puja, a griha pravesh, a mundan, a new vehicle or setting out on a trip. Abhijit Muhurat (11:59 AM – 12:51 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (7:31 AM – 9:09 AM) 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 Rakasgi local time, so no IST arithmetic is needed.
The tithi on 15 June 2026 is Krishna Paksha Amavasya. 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 Rakasgi local time (Asia/Kolkata).
The Moon is in Mrigashira 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 Rakasgi.
Today's yoga is Shula. 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 15 June 2026 the sun rises in Rakasgi at 5:53 AM and sets at 6:58 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.
