Today's Tithi in Marengo

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 Marengo local time (America/Chicago).

Today's Nakshatra in Marengo

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 Marengo.

Today's Yoga in Marengo

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 Marengo

On 15 June 2026 the sun rises in Marengo at 5:17 AM and sets at 8:32 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 Marengo

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 Marengo, Illinois on 15 June 2026, when the Shukla Paksha Pratipada tithi prevails and the Moon sits in Mrigashira nakshatra. Every auspicious and inauspicious window shown here is calculated from Marengo's own sky at 42.25°N, 88.61°W, never recycled from a generic IST panchang.

City-specific calculation is not a nicety; it changes the answers. Marengo sits at 42.25°N, 88.61°W in the America/Chicago timezone, so its sunrise, sunset and day length differ from Delhi's or Mumbai's. On 15 June 2026 the sun rises over Marengo at 5:17 AM and sets at 8:32 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 America/Chicago time, and all sunrise-based periods are cut from Marengo's actual daylight. Our methodology page explains every step.

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 Marengo, United States.

How is Rahu Kalam calculated in Marengo?

The daylight between Marengo'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 Marengo'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 Marengo on 15 June 2026?

Rahu Kalam in Marengo on 15 June 2026 is from 7:11 AM – 9:06 AM Illinois local time. It is computed from Marengo'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 Marengo?

The tithi is Shukla Paksha Pratipada, until 6:03 PM local time. Tithi end times are converted to Marengo's timezone (America/Chicago).

Why is the panchang for Marengo different from India?

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. Marengo (42.25°, -88.61°) 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 Marengo.

What is the shubh muhurat in Marengo on 15 June 2026?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:24 PM – 1:25 PM local time in Marengo.
