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
Panchamiपञ्चमीtill 14:58
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 ChintamaniTithi-prakaranam (Nanda/Bhadra/Jaya/Rikta/Purna tithi-types)
Nakshatra
Maghaमघाtill 16:33
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 SamhitaNakshatra chapters (nakshatra qualities)
Yoga
Pritiप्रीतिtill 17:55
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 ChintamaniYoga enumeration (tyajya-yoga list, v. 33)
Karana
Taitilaतैतिलtill 14:58
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.

BPHSKarana-jnana-vidhi (11 karanas including Vishti)
Vara
Somavaraसोमवार
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 ChintamaniVara-prakaranam (weekday lords)
Maasa
Paushaपौष
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 SindhuAdhikamasa-nirnaya (intercalary month)
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
Simha
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 Chintamani2.4-2.5 (Chandrabala)
Surya Rashi
Dhanuधनु

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. 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 Coimbatore'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.

Hora - Coimbatore, 28 December 2026

On Monday, the 28th of December 2026, the Vedic calendar for those in Coimbatore carries a day of particular rhythmic quality. The morning light begins at 6:39 AM and dipping below the horizon at 6:07 PM, bringing 11 hours 27 minutes of daylight. The tithi is Panchami of Krishna Paksha, and the nakshatra of the day is Magha. Yoga for the day is Priti, completing the core panchang signature for 2026-12-28. Pre-dawn, from 5:03 AM to 5:51 AM, is Brahma Muhurta: the period the Vedic tradition reserves for prayer, meditation, and study.

For those in Coimbatore, From 8:05 AM to 9:31 AM Rahu Kala is in force — the period to avoid for new endeavours. On Monday the Disha Shool (directional affliction) is East; the classical recommendation is to delay East-facing departures. On the auspicious side, Amrit (6:39 AM–8:05 AM) is the top-quality choghadiya of the day. Magha nakshatra is governed by Ketu, grounding the cosmic calendar in the rhythms of this specific place and time.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why is sunrise in Coimbatore on 28 December 2026 at 6:39 AM?
Sunrise at 6:39 AM in Coimbatore on 28 December 2026 is determined by the city's geographic latitude (11.02°N) and the Earth's axial tilt on this date. The exact sunrise and sunset (6:07 PM) define the length of the Vedic day and anchor all panchang calculations — from Rahu Kaal to the choghadiya slots — to Coimbatore's local horizon.
