Today's Tithi in Fort Edward
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 Fort Edward local time (America/New York).
Today's Nakshatra in Fort Edward
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 Fort Edward.
Today's Yoga in Fort Edward
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.
Sunrise and Sunset in Fort Edward
On 19 June 2026 the sun rises in Fort Edward at 5:14 AM and sets at 8:37 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 Fort Edward
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 Fort Edward, New York on 19 June 2026, when the Shukla Paksha Panchami tithi prevails and the Moon sits in Magha nakshatra. Every auspicious and inauspicious window shown here is calculated from Fort Edward's own sky at 43.27°N, 73.58°W, never recycled from a generic IST panchang.
The reason a generic almanac misleads is geometry. Fort Edward stands at 43.27°N, 73.58°W and runs on America/New York time, so the Sun crosses its horizon on a schedule unlike any Indian city's. On 19 June 2026 the sun rises over Fort Edward at 5:14 AM and sets at 8:37 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 Fort Edward 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 America/New York time and then compute Rahu Kalam, the choghadiya and the rest from Fort Edward's actual sunrise and sunset. See our methodology page for the full working.
For the Hindu community in Fort Edward and the wider New York 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 (12:25 PM – 1:26 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (11:00 AM – 12:55 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. For longer ceremonies, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — all in Fort Edward local time, so what you read is what your clock shows.
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 Fort Edward, United States.
How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Fort Edward?
The daylight between Fort Edward'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 Fort Edward'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 Fort Edward on 19 June 2026?
Rahu Kalam in Fort Edward on 19 June 2026 is from 11:00 AM – 12:55 PM New York local time. It is computed from Fort Edward's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.
What is the tithi on 19 June 2026 in Fort Edward?
The tithi is Shukla Paksha Panchami, until 7:32 AM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Fort Edward's timezone (America/New York).
Why is the panchang for Fort Edward different from India?
All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Fort Edward (43.27°, -73.58°) 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 Fort Edward.
What is the shubh muhurat in Fort Edward on 19 June 2026?
Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:25 PM – 1:26 PM local time in Fort Edward.
