Today's Tithi in Cape Neddick

The tithi on 16 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Dvitiya. 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 Cape Neddick local time (America/New York).

Today's Nakshatra in Cape Neddick

The Moon is in Ardra 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 Cape Neddick.

Today's Yoga in Cape Neddick

Today's yoga is Vriddhi. 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 Cape Neddick

On 16 June 2026 the sun rises in Cape Neddick at 5:02 AM and sets at 8:24 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 Cape Neddick

The five limbs of the panchang — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and vara — have guided Hindu timekeeping for millennia, and this page works all five out specifically for Cape Neddick, Maine. On 16 June 2026 the day unfolds under the Shukla Paksha Dvitiya tithi with the Moon in Ardra nakshatra. Because the timings are tied to Cape Neddick's own horizon (43.19°N, 70.62°W), they differ from the figures an Indian city would show.

Here is why this page is computed for Cape Neddick and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 43.19°N, 70.62°W on America/New York time, Cape Neddick's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 16 June 2026 the sun rises over Cape Neddick at 5:02 AM and sets at 8:24 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 America/New York local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from Cape Neddick's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.

If you live in Cape Neddick or elsewhere in Maine, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (12:12 PM – 1:14 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (4:33 PM – 6:29 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Tuesday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in Cape Neddick local time, with no conversion from IST required.

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 Cape Neddick, United States.

How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Cape Neddick?

The daylight between Cape Neddick'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 Cape Neddick'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 Cape Neddick on 16 June 2026?

Rahu Kalam in Cape Neddick on 16 June 2026 is from 4:33 PM – 6:29 PM Maine local time. It is computed from Cape Neddick's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.

What is the tithi on 16 June 2026 in Cape Neddick?

The tithi is Shukla Paksha Dvitiya, until 3:25 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Cape Neddick's timezone (America/New York).

Why is the panchang for Cape Neddick different from India?

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Cape Neddick (43.19°, -70.62°) 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 Cape Neddick.

What is the shubh muhurat in Cape Neddick on 16 June 2026?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:12 PM – 1:14 PM local time in Cape Neddick.
