Definition
Panchang (Sanskrit pancha-anga, “five limbs”) is the Hindu almanac of a place and day. Its five limbs are the tithi (lunar day), vaara (weekday), nakshatra (lunar mansion), yoga, and karana. Because it is computed from the exact positions of the Sun and Moon for Chennai’s coordinates, the panchang and every muhurat above are specific to this city — not a national average.
Timing
The daylight span (sunrise to sunset) is divided into eight equal parts. One part is Rahu Kaal, ruled by the shadow-planet Rahu, and its slot shifts by weekday. Gulika Kaal and Yamaganda are found the same way. New ventures are traditionally paused in these windows and begun during the Abhijit or Brahma Muhurat instead — which is why the exact minutes depend on Chennai’s real sunrise (5:42 AM) and sunset (6:34 PM).
Today’s guidance · Excellent
Today is highly favorable for most activities. The Shashthi tithi (Krishna Paksha) combined with Shravana nakshatra and Indra yoga (auspicious) creates the prevailing cosmic atmosphere. Sunday's solar energy supports authority and vitality - step into leadership roles.
