Choghadiya - Jabalpur, 16 April 2026

On Thursday, the 16th of April 2026, the Vedic calendar in Jabalpur carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 5:49 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:30 PM, bringing 12 hours 40 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Chaturdashi of Krishna side of the lunar month, and the nakshatra of the day is Uttara Bhadrapada. The day carries the Indra yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-04-16. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 4:13 AM to 5:01 AM.

In Jabalpur, Rahu Kala runs from 1:45 PM to 3:20 PM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Thursday is South; new ventures toward the South are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Shubh choghadiya, running 5:49 AM to 7:24 AM, stands out as the best muhurta. Uttara Bhadrapada nakshatra is under the lordship of Saturn, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with Jabalpur's horizon.
