Today's Tithi in South Roxana
The tithi on 20 June 2026 is Shukla Paksha Saptami. 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 South Roxana local time (America/Chicago).
Today's Nakshatra in South Roxana
The Moon is in Purva Phalguni 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 South Roxana.
Today's Yoga in South Roxana
Today's yoga is Siddhi. 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 South Roxana
On 20 June 2026 the sun rises in South Roxana at 5:35 AM and sets at 8:28 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 South Roxana
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 South Roxana, Illinois on 20 June 2026, when the Shukla Paksha Saptami tithi prevails and the Moon sits in Purva Phalguni nakshatra. Every auspicious and inauspicious window shown here is calculated from South Roxana's own sky at 38.83°N, 90.06°W, never recycled from a generic IST panchang.
The reason a generic almanac misleads is geometry. South Roxana stands at 38.83°N, 90.06°W and runs on America/Chicago time, so the Sun crosses its horizon on a schedule unlike any Indian city's. On 20 June 2026 the sun rises over South Roxana at 5:35 AM and sets at 8:28 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 South Roxana 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/Chicago time and then compute Rahu Kalam, the choghadiya and the rest from South Roxana's actual sunrise and sunset. See our methodology page for the full working.
For the Hindu community in South Roxana and the wider Illinois area, this page answers the practical questions: when to schedule a puja, griha pravesh, vehicle purchase, mundan or journey on Saturday, 20 June 2026. Abhijit Muhurat (12:32 PM – 1:31 PM) is the day's most dependable auspicious window, while Rahu Kalam (9:18 AM – 11:10 AM) is best avoided for new beginnings. For longer ceremonies, pick a favourable choghadiya from the tables above — all in South Roxana 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 South Roxana, United States.
How is Rahu Kalam calculated in South Roxana?
The daylight between South Roxana'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 South Roxana'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 South Roxana on 20 June 2026?
Rahu Kalam in South Roxana on 20 June 2026 is from 9:18 AM – 11:10 AM Illinois local time. It is computed from South Roxana's own sunrise and sunset — not India's — so it differs from Rahu Kalam in Indian cities.
What is the tithi on 20 June 2026 in South Roxana?
The tithi is Shukla Paksha Saptami, until 4:53 AM local time. Tithi end times are converted to South Roxana's timezone (America/Chicago).
Why is the panchang for South Roxana different from India?
All panchang timings depend on local sunrise and sunset. South Roxana (38.83°, -90.06°) 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 South Roxana.
What is the shubh muhurat in South Roxana on 20 June 2026?
Abhijit Muhurat, the most auspicious window of the day, is 12:32 PM – 1:31 PM local time in South Roxana.
