Panchang — the five angas पञ्चाङ्ग
Tithi, Nakshatra, Yoga, Karana and Vara with their end-times, plus the month and the Moon’s and Sun’s signs — computed for this city’s sunrise. Times after midnight use the traditional extended clock (e.g. 27:23 = 03:23 next morning).
- Tithi
- Trayodashiत्रयोदशीtill 16:08then Chaturdashiचतुर्दशीtill 36:20
What this means
The lunar day. It is set by how far the Moon has pulled ahead of the Sun — each 12 degrees of separation is one tithi. The tithi shapes which activities the tradition favours, and it ends at the time shown, when the next one begins.
Muhurta Chintamani — Tithi-prakaranam (Nanda/Bhadra/Jaya/Rikta/Purna tithi-types) - Nakshatra
- Krittikaकृत्तिकाtill 25:17then Rohiniरोहिणीtill 46:14
What this means
The Moon's star-mansion — the patch of sky it sits in today, one of 27. Each nakshatra has its own temperament that classical texts use to judge what the day is good for.
Brihat Samhita — Nakshatra chapters (nakshatra qualities) - Yoga
- Sukarmaसुकर्माtill 17:28then Dhritiधृतिtill 37:15
What this means
A combined Sun-and-Moon measure (one of 27 nitya-yogas) — not the physical posture practice. A few yogas, such as Vyatipata and Vaidhriti, are best avoided; most are ordinary.
Muhurta Chintamani — Yoga enumeration (tyajya-yoga list, v. 33) - Karana
- Garajaगरजtill 05:55then Vanijaवणिजtill 16:08chain: Garaja (05:55) → Vanija (16:08) → Shakuni (26:15) → Chatushpada (36:20)
What this means
Half of a tithi — each lunar day holds two karanas. One of them, Vishti (also called Bhadra), is treated as inauspicious; the rest are workable.
BPHS — Karana-jnana-vidhi (11 karanas including Vishti) - Vara
- Shanivaraशनिवार
What this means
The weekday and its ruling planet. Each day's planet colours which tasks the tradition recommends — e.g. Thursday (Jupiter) for auspicious beginnings.
Muhurta Chintamani — Vara-prakaranam (weekday lords) - Maasa (Amanta)
- Adhika Jyeshthaज्येष्ठPravishte/Gate: 30Adhika maas
What this means
The lunar month. India uses two reckonings — Amanta (new-moon to new-moon) and Purnimanta (full-moon to full-moon) — so the name can differ by region. An 'Adhika' (extra) month is inserted to keep the lunar and solar years aligned.
Nirnaya Sindhu — Adhikamasa-nirnaya (intercalary month) - Maasa (Purnimanta)
- Adhika Jyeshthaज्येष्ठAdhika maas
- Paksha
- Krishna (waning)कृष्ण पक्ष
What this means
The fortnight. Shukla is the waxing half (Moon growing toward full); Krishna is the waning half (toward the new moon).
Calendar definition
- Chandra Rashi
- Meshaमेषtill 09:25then Vrishabhaवृषभ
What this means
The zodiac sign the Moon occupies now. Together with your birth Moon-sign it drives Chandrabala — the Moon's day-to-day favourability for you.
Muhurta Chintamani — 2.4-2.5 (Chandrabala) - Surya Rashi
- Vrishabhaवृषभ
Sidereal (Lahiri) ephemeris; anga end-times computed to the city’s actual sunrise. “Adhika maas” marks an intercalary lunar month (no solar sankranti within it).
How we compute this panchang
Every time on this page is calculated from the actual positions of the Sun and Moon using the Swiss Ephemeris (the same high-precision astronomical engine used by professional astronomers), not from a printed almanac or a fixed table.
- Sidereal zodiac, Lahiri ayanamsha — the standard used by the Indian government calendar (ayanamsha for this date: 24.2265°). All nakshatra, rashi, tithi and yoga boundaries follow from it.
- Local true sunrise — muhurta windows (Rahu Kaal, Choghadiya, Hora, Abhijit and the rest) are measured from the true sunrise computed for Dhanbad's exact coordinates, so they are correct for your location, not a regional approximation.
- Two month conventions — we show both the Amanta (new-moon-to-new-moon) and Purnimanta (full-moon-to-full-moon) lunar month, because different regions of India follow different ones; an Adhika (intercalary) month is marked when it occurs.
Significance and auspicious/inauspicious flags are drawn from classical texts (Muhurta Chintamani, Brihat Samhita, the Puranas and others) and cited inline — we never assert an effect a text does not state.

Gulika Kala - Dhanbad, 13 June 2026
On Saturday, the 13th of June 2026, the Vedic calendar in Dhanbad carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. Sunrise arrives at 4:57 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:30 PM, bringing 13 hours 33 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Trayodashi of Krishna Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Krittika. The day carries the Sukarma yoga, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-06-13. Brahma Muhurta, the pre-dawn meditation window, runs from 3:21 AM to 4:09 AM.
In Dhanbad, Rahu Kala runs from 8:21 AM to 10:02 AM — the period to avoid for new endeavours. The inauspicious direction (Disha Shool) for Saturday is East; new ventures toward the East are traditionally deferred. On the auspicious side, Shubh choghadiya, running 6:39 AM to 8:21 AM, stands out as the best muhurta. Krittika nakshatra is under the lordship of Sun, bringing the ancient panchang frame into direct contact with Dhanbad's horizon.
