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 Sakharwadi every day.
What is the tithi today in Sakharwadi?
Today (20 June 2026) the tithi in Sakharwadi is Shukla Paksha Shashthi, until 3:49 PM IST.
What time is Rahu Kaal in Sakharwadi today?
Rahu Kaal in Sakharwadi today is 9:16 AM – 10:55 AM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Sakharwadi's own sunrise and sunset, so it differs slightly from city to city even within India.
What is the shubh muhurat in Sakharwadi today?
Abhijit Muhurat, the most dependable auspicious window of the day, is 12:07 PM – 1:00 PM IST in Sakharwadi 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 Sakharwadi (18.05°N, 74.33°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Sakharwadi's own coordinates.
About Panchang in Sakharwadi
A panchang answers a simple question — what does today favour? — through five limbs: tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara. This is the complete panchang for Sakharwadi, Maharashtra on 20 June 2026, when the Shukla Paksha Shashthi tithi prevails and the Moon sits in Magha nakshatra. Every auspicious and inauspicious window shown here is calculated from Sakharwadi's own sky at 18.05°N, 74.33°E, never recycled from a generic IST panchang.
The reason a generic almanac misleads is geometry. Sakharwadi stands at 18.05°N, 74.33°E and runs on Asia/Kolkata time, so the Sun crosses its horizon on a schedule unlike any Indian city's. On 20 June 2026 the sun rises over Sakharwadi at 5:58 AM and sets at 7:10 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, the eight choghadiya periods and Abhijit Muhurat are each cut from the interval between this local sunrise and sunset. Use IST figures in Sakharwadi and every window lands at the wrong moment — and over a wide enough longitude gap, the date's tithi itself can change.
Behind the timings on this page is a precise pipeline: Swiss Ephemeris longitudes for the Sun and Moon, adjusted by the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa adopted in India's Rashtriya Panchang. The rule is simple — a tithi closes when the Moon is 12° further along than the Sun, a nakshatra when the Moon enters the next 13°20′ span. Those moments hold worldwide, so we translate each into Asia/Kolkata time and then compute Rahu Kalam, the choghadiya and the rest from Sakharwadi's actual sunrise and sunset. See our methodology page for the full working.
For the Hindu community in Sakharwadi and the wider Maharashtra area, this page answers the practical questions: when to schedule a puja, griha pravesh, vehicle purchase, mundan or journey on Saturday, 20 June 2026. Abhijit Muhurat (12:07 PM – 1:00 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (9:16 AM – 10:55 AM) is best avoided for new beginnings. For longer ceremonies, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — all in Sakharwadi local time, so what you read is what your clock shows.
Today's Tithi in Sakharwadi
The tithi on 20 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Shashthi. 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 Sakharwadi local time (Asia/Kolkata).
Today's Nakshatra in Sakharwadi
The Moon is in Magha 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 Sakharwadi.
Today's Yoga in Sakharwadi
Today's yoga is Vajra. 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 Sakharwadi
On 20 June 2026 the sun rises in Sakharwadi at 5:58 AM and sets at 7:10 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.
