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 Shiganpur every day.
Today (19 June 2026) the tithi in Shiganpur is Shukla Paksha Panchami, until 5:02 PM IST.
Rahu Kaal in Shiganpur today is 10:44 AM – 12:33 PM IST. It is one-eighth of the local daylight between Shiganpur'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 12:04 PM – 1:01 PM IST in Shiganpur 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 Shiganpur (34.21°N, 74.62°E) differs from other cities. That is why this page is computed for Shiganpur's own coordinates.
Hindus have timed worship, travel and new beginnings with the panchang for centuries. It reads each day through five limbs — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara — and this page presents all five for Shiganpur, Jammu and Kashmir on 19 June 2026. Today's reckoning: Shukla Paksha Panchami tithi, Moon in Ashlesha nakshatra. Every timing shown is calculated for Shiganpur's own coordinates instead of being reused from an Indian city's panchang.
The reason a generic almanac misleads is geometry. Shiganpur stands at 34.21°N, 74.62°E and runs on Asia/Kolkata time, so the Sun crosses its horizon on a schedule unlike any Indian city's. On 19 June 2026 the sun rises over Shiganpur at 5:19 AM and sets at 7:46 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 Shiganpur 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 Shiganpur's actual sunrise and sunset. See our methodology page for the full working.
For the Hindu community in Shiganpur and the wider Jammu and Kashmir area, this page answers the practical questions: when to schedule a puja, griha pravesh, vehicle purchase, mundan or journey on Friday, 19 June 2026. Abhijit Muhurat (12:04 PM – 1:01 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (10:44 AM – 12:33 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. For longer ceremonies, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — all in Shiganpur local time, so what you read is what your clock shows.
The tithi on 19 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Panchami. 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 Shiganpur local time (Asia/Kolkata).
The Moon is in Ashlesha 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 Shiganpur.
Today's yoga is Harshana. 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 19 June 2026 the sun rises in Shiganpur at 5:19 AM and sets at 7:46 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.
