Today's Tithi in Arifiye

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 Arifiye local time (Europe/Istanbul).

Today's Nakshatra in Arifiye

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 Arifiye.

Today's Yoga in Arifiye

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 Arifiye

On 20 June 2026 the sun rises in Arifiye at 5:27 AM and sets at 8:33 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.

About Panchang in Arifiye

Think of the panchang as the Hindu day's instruction sheet: five limbs — tithi (lunar day), nakshatra (the Moon's mansion), yoga, karana and vara — that tell you what each day favours. For Arifiye, Sakarya on 20 June 2026 the sheet reads Shukla Paksha Shashthi tithi with the Moon in Magha nakshatra. Every window further down is computed for Arifiye's location (40.70°N, 30.35°E) rather than copied from a standard Indian-city table.

City-specific calculation is not a nicety; it changes the answers. Arifiye sits at 40.70°N, 30.35°E in the Europe/Istanbul timezone, so its sunrise, sunset and day length differ from Delhi's or Mumbai's. On 20 June 2026 the sun rises over Arifiye at 5:27 AM and sets at 8:33 PM — figures no Indian city shares — and since Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda, Gulika, choghadiya and Abhijit Muhurat are all carved out of the local interval between sunrise and sunset, each of those windows lands at a different clock time here than in India. Even the prevailing tithi on your calendar date can differ, because tithi boundaries fall at fixed moments worldwide that convert to different local dates across timezones.

The numbers on this page are drik-siddha — derived from observed planetary positions rather than older mean-motion tables. We compute Sun and Moon longitudes with the Swiss Ephemeris and apply the Lahiri (Chitrapaksha) ayanamsa used by the Indian government's Rashtriya Panchang. A tithi ends when the Moon gains a further 12° on the Sun, a nakshatra when the Moon crosses into the next 13°20′ segment; those instants are then expressed in Europe/Istanbul time, and all sunrise-based periods are cut from Arifiye's actual daylight. Our methodology page explains every step.

Whether it is a puja, griha pravesh, naming ceremony, vehicle purchase or the start of a journey, the day's structure is laid out for you. Abhijit Muhurat (12:30 PM – 1:30 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (9:13 AM – 11:07 AM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above break Saturday into favourable and unfavourable spells — all already in Arifiye local time.

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 from them derives the day's auspicious (muhurat) and inauspicious (Rahu Kalam, Yamaganda) periods. This page computes all of them for Arifiye, Turkey.

How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Arifiye?

The daylight between Arifiye's local sunrise and sunset is divided into eight equal parts, and one fixed part belongs to Rahu depending on the weekday (for example the 8th part on Sunday, the 2nd on Monday). Because Arifiye's sunrise and day length differ from India's, its Rahu Kalam falls at different clock times than in Indian cities.

What time is Rahu Kalam in Arifiye on 20 June 2026?

Rahu Kalam in Arifiye on 20 June 2026 is from 9:13 AM – 11:07 AM Sakarya local time. It is computed from Arifiye's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.

What is the tithi on 20 June 2026 in Arifiye?

The tithi is Shukla Paksha Shashthi, until 1:19 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Arifiye's timezone (Europe/Istanbul).

Why is the panchang for Arifiye different from India?

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Arifiye (40.70°, 30.35°) has different sun times than India, so Rahu Kalam, choghadiya and muhurat windows shift — and because of the time difference, even the tithi prevailing on your calendar date can differ from India's. This page is computed specifically for Arifiye.

What is the shubh muhurat in Arifiye on 20 June 2026?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:30 PM – 1:30 PM local time in Arifiye.
