Today's Tithi in San Leandro

The tithi on 19 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 San Leandro local time (America/Los Angeles).

Today's Nakshatra in San Leandro

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 San Leandro.

Today's Yoga in San Leandro

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 San Leandro

On 19 June 2026 the sun rises in San Leandro at 5:46 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 San Leandro

Every traditional Hindu day is read through five limbs — tithi, nakshatra, yoga, karana and the weekday (vara) — which together make up the panchang, literally "five limbs". This page sets out all five for San Leandro, California on 19 June 2026: the Shukla Paksha Shashthi tithi is in force with the Moon travelling through Magha nakshatra. Crucially, every muhurat and kaal below is derived from San Leandro's own sunrise at 37.72°N, 122.16°W, not lifted from an India-time almanac.

Here is why this page is computed for San Leandro and not merely translated from an Indian almanac: the panchang's machinery turns on local sunrise. At 37.72°N, 122.16°W on America/Los Angeles time, San Leandro's day starts and ends at its own hours. On 19 June 2026 the sun rises over San Leandro at 5:46 AM and sets at 8:33 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/Los Angeles local time, then derive sunrise-dependent windows from San Leandro's own horizon. The full method is documented on our methodology page.

If you live in San Leandro or elsewhere in California, use this page the way a family priest would: check the tithi and nakshatra first, then choose your hour. Abhijit Muhurat (12:40 PM – 1:39 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (11:19 AM – 1:10 PM) is best avoided for new beginnings. The choghadiya tables above divide Friday's daylight and night into auspicious and inauspicious spells — every figure already in San Leandro 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 San Leandro, United States.

How is Rahu Kalam calculated in San Leandro?

The daylight between San Leandro'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 San Leandro'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 San Leandro on 19 June 2026?

Rahu Kalam in San Leandro on 19 June 2026 is from 11:19 AM – 1:10 PM California local time. It is computed from San Leandro'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 San Leandro?

The tithi is Shukla Paksha Shashthi, until 3:19 AM local time. Tithi end times are converted to San Leandro's timezone (America/Los Angeles).

Why is the panchang for San Leandro different from India?

All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. San Leandro (37.72°, -122.16°) 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 San Leandro.

What is the shubh muhurat in San Leandro on 19 June 2026?

Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:40 PM – 1:39 PM local time in San Leandro.
