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 Ralhani-di Ser every day.
Today (18 June 2026) the tithi in Ralhani-di Ser is Shukla Paksha Chaturthi, until 7:01 PM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Ralhani-di Ser today is 2:14 PM – 4:02 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Ralhani-di Ser'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 11:58 AM – 12:55 PM IST in Ralhani-di Ser 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 Ralhani-di Ser (33.11°N, 76.04°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Ralhani-di Ser's own coordinates.
Every traditional Hindu day is read through five limbs — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and the weekday (vara) — which together make up the panchang, literally "five limbs". This page sets out all five for Ralhani-di Ser, Jammu and Kashmir on 18 June 2026: the Shukla Paksha Chaturthi tithi is in force with the Moon travelling through Pushya nakshatra. Crucially, every muhurat and kaal below is derived from Ralhani-di Ser's own sunrise at 33.11°N, 76.04°E, not lifted from an India-time almanac.
Here is why this page is computed for Ralhani-di Ser and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 33.11°N, 76.04°E on Asia/Kolkata time, Ralhani-di Ser's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 18 June 2026 the sun rises over Ralhani-di Ser at 5:16 AM and sets at 7:37 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 Ralhani-di Ser's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.
If you live in Ralhani-di Ser or elsewhere in Jammu and Kashmir, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (11:58 AM – 12:55 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (2:14 PM – 4:02 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Thursday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Ralhani-di Ser local time, with no conversion from IST required.
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 Ralhani-di Ser 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 Ralhani-di Ser.
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 Ralhani-di Ser at 5:16 AM and sets at 7:37 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.
