What is Panchang? पंचांग
The word Panchang comes from Sanskrit — Pancha (five) + Anga (limbs). It is the traditional Vedic calendar system that has been used across the Indian subcontinent for thousands of years to track lunar days, stellar positions, and cosmic rhythms. Every day in the Hindu calendar is defined by these five elements working together.
Tithi तिथि
The lunar day — determined by the angular distance between the Sun and Moon. There are 30 tithis in a lunar month, 15 in each paksha (Shukla and Krishna). Each tithi carries its own energy: some are ideal for beginnings, others for completion or rest. Festivals like Ekadashi, Amavasya, and Purnima are all tithi-based.
Nakshatra नक्षत्र
The lunar mansion — the Moon's position among 27 star clusters along the ecliptic. Each nakshatra spans 13°20' of the zodiac and has a ruling deity, planet, and distinct character. Nakshatras are central to muhurat selection, birth chart interpretation, and compatibility matching in Vedic astrology.
Yoga योग
The luni-solar combination — calculated from the sum of the Sun's and Moon's longitudes divided into 27 equal parts. Each yoga has a name and nature (auspicious, neutral, or inauspicious). Yogas like Siddha, Amrita, and Shubha are considered favorable, while Vyaghata and Vajra call for caution.
Karana करण
Half of a tithi — each tithi has two karanas, giving 60 karanas in a lunar month. Of the 11 karana types, 4 are fixed (Shakuni, Chatushpada, Naga, Kimstughna) and 7 are movable. Karanas help fine-tune the auspiciousness of a tithi for specific activities.
Vara वार
The weekday — each vara is ruled by a planet: Ravivara (Sun), Somavara (Moon), Mangalavara (Mars), Budhavara (Mercury), Guruvara (Jupiter), Shukravara (Venus), Shanivara (Saturn). The ruling planet influences the character of the day and which activities are most favored.
Why Check the Panchang Daily?
For centuries, families, priests, and astrologers across India have consulted the Panchang before making any significant decision. It isn't superstition — it's a systematic method of aligning human activity with natural cycles.
Muhurat Selection
Find the most auspicious time for weddings, griha pravesh, mundan, namkaran, and other samskaras. The right muhurat combines a favorable tithi, nakshatra, yoga, and karana while avoiding Rahu Kaal.
Business & Finance
Start a new business, sign contracts, make investments, or open accounts during auspicious tithis and nakshatras. Many Indian businesses still consult the Panchang before major financial decisions.
Festival & Vrat Dates
Hindu festivals follow the lunar calendar — Diwali, Navratri, Karva Chauth, Ekadashi, and Pradosh Vrat dates all come from the Panchang. Accurate tithi calculations ensure you observe these on the correct day.
Daily Puja & Rituals
Know the ruling deity of the day, the appropriate mantras for the current nakshatra, and whether the tithi supports your planned worship. Brahma Muhurat and Abhijit Muhurat are the day's most sacred windows.
Travel & Journeys
Vedic tradition recommends checking the Panchang before long journeys. Certain nakshatras (like Ashwini, Mrigashira, Pushya, Revati) are considered ideal for travel, while Rahu Kaal should be avoided for departures.
Education & Learning
Vidyarambha (beginning of education) and joining a new course or school are traditionally timed using the Panchang. Nakshatras ruled by Mercury and Jupiter are especially valued for intellectual pursuits.
Panchang for Vigo
This Panchang is calculated specifically for Vigo using precise geographic coordinates (42.23°N, -8.71°E). Sunrise in Vigo on this day is at 06:06 AM and sunset at 08:57 PM — all time-dependent elements including tithi end times, Rahu Kaal, Yamaghanda, Gulika Kaal, Abhijit Muhurat, and Brahma Muhurat are derived from these local sun timings.
Because the Panchang is location-sensitive, the same date can show different tithi or nakshatra transition times in different cities. A tithi that ends at 3:42 PM in Vigo may end at a different time in another city due to the difference in sunrise. This is why it's important to use a Panchang calculated for your specific city rather than a generic national Panchang.
