Today's Tithi in Barracks Row
The tithi on 15 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Pratipada. 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 Barracks Row local time (America/New York).
Today's Nakshatra in Barracks Row
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 Barracks Row.
Today's Yoga in Barracks Row
Today's yoga is Ganda. 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 Barracks Row
On 15 June 2026 the sun rises in Barracks Row at 5:42 AM and sets at 8:34 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 Barracks Row
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 Barracks Row, District of Columbia on 15 June 2026: the day runs under the Shukla Paksha Pratipada tithi with the Moon in Mrigashira nakshatra, and all auspicious and inauspicious windows are computed for Barracks Row 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. Barracks Row lies at 38.88°N, 77.00°W and keeps America/New York time, so its days begin and end at different moments than any Indian city's. On 15 June 2026 the sun rises over Barracks Row at 5:42 AM and sets at 8:34 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 Barracks Row 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 America/New York time and then carve every sunrise-based window from Barracks Row's own daylight. The full method is on our methodology page.
For families in Barracks Row and across District of Columbia, 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 (12:38 PM – 1:38 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (7:33 AM – 9:25 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 Barracks Row local time, so no IST arithmetic is needed.
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 Barracks Row, United States.
How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Barracks Row?
The daylight between Barracks Row'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 Barracks Row'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 Barracks Row on 15 June 2026?
Rahu Kalam in Barracks Row on 15 June 2026 is from 7:33 AM – 9:25 AM District of Columbia local time. It is computed from Barracks Row's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.
What is the tithi on 15 June 2026 in Barracks Row?
The tithi is Shukla Paksha Pratipada, until 7:03 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Barracks Row's timezone (America/New York).

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Barracks Row (38.88°, -77.00°) 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.
